I liked it better than I thought I would. The start is a bit rocky, with some characters being simplistic, but it picks up around chapter 5 and becomes a worthwhile fantasy novel.

My kids LOVED this series, and so did I. My (now 23-year-old) daughter re-read the audiobooks multiple times over the years.

This has been one of my favourite books since I first read it! I love all aspects of the magic and adventure and mystery. Secret tunnels, a cottage, amazing castles and more!

Absolutely love this series. Leaves you filled with child like wonder thinking what if we lived in this crazy magical world. Takes you to a different place for those of you who like to dive into a good story and escape reality for a bit!

This is an amazing book and I would recommend it to ages 10 to 25. If you read it lower than ten, it is confusing and it may be boring if you read it after about 25. Magyk is a wonderful book.

Great book, many characters! I especially reccomend this book to Harry Potter or Sisters Grimm fans.

The first time I tried out this book it didn't seem that appealing to me. Than, one day I decided to try it out and again and LOVED it. I never thought that I would end up liking this book and set off to finish the series.

I had trouble keeping track of all the characters in this middle-grade fantasy. Not my favorite style, but it was a quick and easy read. If you know any fantasy fans who like fast-paced adventures, recommend this book to them. Read-alike:…

I had tried this book a few years ago, and it had not struck my fancy. I decided to try it again, though, and I LOVED it! This book is packed with creativity and rich characters. So glad there are so many more in the series!

Slow to get started but lots of fun once it got underway. Maybe the plot was a little too predictable (at least for an adult) but who doesn’t like a story where everything works out in the end?

Not a new story, but entertaining, and more complexity to the characters than at first appears. The typeface is extremely offputting, and doesn't really represent the content.

Great read for kids who loved the first 3 Harry Potter books. Very funny and magykal. Nothing too scary, but lots of action. There are a few later in the series that drag a little, but overall very enjoyable and if you liked the first one…

One night, the seventh son of a seventh son is stolen from his family and replaced by a baby girl with purple eyes. Years later, everyone involved is thrust into the adventure of a lifetime. This is a great read if you like adventure,…

This series is amazing; I was in love when I was younger! It's a bit big, but worth the time put into it, and great if you enjoy long series.

Predictable, yet thoroughly engaging tale of good magic versus dark magic.
