I hold a lot of nostalgia for the entire series so I'm fairly biased. It's fun! It's interesting! I enjoyed it as a middle school kid and I enjoy it now as an adult.

Pretty good! Liked it but I don't get the feather on the cover, did it even mention it in the book?

Encontre este libro revolviendo en mi vieja biblioteca y recuerdo haberlo leído de chica. Me había gustado e incluso hoy recuerdo que me quedaron varias dudas, pero nunca pude conseguir el segundo.
Aunque no me acuerdo demasiado de la trama, recuerdo que me había parecido lleno de cliches (¡y a esa edad!).

Aun así le guardo cierto cariño, por lo cual le daré tres estrellas y lo guardaré en algún lugar especial, para prestarselo a mis sobrinos cuando tengan edad suficiente para leer.

I am basing my rating for these childhood books on how much I enjoyed them when I read them as a child.

Finished on the second of October at 16:22. I really love the way magic works in this and enjoyed it in general, but something was missing for me. Some tiny little thing. I'll definitely read the sequel tho.

I'm making a note of this to myself, as I want to re-read it after finally finding out what the name of series is in English.
