The New Great Fantasy Adventure Series

In an age when reading is less and less popular among both children and adults, Cinda Williams Chima has presented us with the next great series that will entertain people of all ages without the need of electricity. Though labeled a a novel for "Young Adults," the series will appeal to adults as well as teenagers. In The Warrior Heir, Chima brings to life a plethora of complex characters. Among them is Jack, the protagonist. Jack is neither an orphan nor the product of an unbroken home. As is so common in reality, and less common in most novels of the genre, Jack's parents are divorced. This is the first of many qualities that tie the main character to those who read about him. Jack's mother, a mysterious old caretaker, a new assistant principal at Jack's school, and others all bring Trinity, Ohio to life. Initially set in Ohio, the novel ties reality to fantasy in the combination that fantasy readers thrive on. The adventure explores a whole new, more sinister, way of life just when global readers thought they had finally conquered the Wizarding world. Pre-teens, teenagers, their college aged siblings, and parents alike will all enjoy Cinda William Chima's The Warrior Heir and the complex world of the Weir that it explores.

The Warrior Heir Review, Cal Skogman

The Warrior Heir is a extremely fascinating book that keeps you guessing until the end. It leads you on an epic journey, that will satisfy the most 'picky' of readers. Jack is a teenager, that has suposedly heart problems. He takes medicine every day, but one day he forgets to take it. He feels amazing, better and stronger than normal. Vice Principal Hastings finds Jack, and Jack finds out a secret that has been kept from him since he was born. He is a warrior. Part of an ancient family of warriors before him. The tournament is brewing, and Jack is chosen to fight. The question is not Jack's ability, but his expeirience; and who will he fight? The Warrior Heir was an amazing book that I had a very hard time setting down.

Loved it...

I really enjoyed this book. I had the day off and spent my entire morning reading it...once you get started it's hard to stop reading. It kept me geusing unitl the very end. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys fantasy books that involve seemingly ordinary people.

Spectacular!

This book was gripping! I found myself staying up all hours of the night just to see what would happen next. A very captivating novel. Highly recommended!! I can't wait for the next book.

Perfect picture of the NEW wizarding world

The Warrior Heir is a new story about wizards. It is a breath of fresh air to those of us who previously only invisioned Harry when we heard the word wizard. This book is captivating, keeping you intrigued the whole way through. It engolfs you into the life of a modern day American teenager in such a way that you really feel like you know, and grew up with Jack. This book washes away the feeling of wizards and magic being "old" and puts it's subject matter smack dab in the middle of 21st Century America. I cannot wait for the next book to come out, and learn about Jack's next adventure... But all I want to know is, when is the movie coming out?!
