I loved this book and didn’t want it to end. (I've read it twice now).
The fantastical story is set in the present day, with a world of magicians and wizards.
Totally absorbing and beautifully descriptive, it created a whole world, in which I was totally lost.
The author displays a superb vivid imagination. (In the story there are magic beds, flowers, drinks, doors and much, much more). There is a highly skilled use of language.
It is an exceptional, magical story, where suspense is achieved (Door of Mystery). I thought the way the 'School Houses' were created was superb and inspiring.
The main character Charlie is a delightful child with an inquisitive, fearless nature, who is determined to find the Half Prophecy. Also, a disguised scroll chart is magically hidden.
Charlie’s mother applies to go to the ‘school of magic’ that appears to be ordinary to begin with. Only selected people go there. A world of magic is revealed to all who attend the school.
The obvious is not always stated in this story, which adds to the mystery.
