Magic or Madness by Justine Larbalestier

3.0

this is a young adult fiction piece that the librarian I'm working with in the children's department couldn't stop raving about. Its pretty good, like most fantasy for kids, it moves fast, has precocious main characters, and energetic descriptions of the world. If you liked Harry Potter, and you are looking for more coming of age books in magical settings, then go for it.
