Great series

This is a great series for anyone who loves fantasy without mature themes. And of the series, this is the best of the books.. so far. The plot keeps getting more complex and has a cliffhanger ending that will leave you yearning for the next installment!

Gotta read it

What can I say? From the beginning of Shaktra, the series picks up pace and takes you on a exciting ride with more mysterious characters coming out of the woodward and throwing you deeper into the world of the Alosha series, where you cannot help but keep reading and wanting more. It's theme is so strong and relevant and conveyed via such a beautiful and intriguing story. It's part young adult, part adult; part fantasy, part thriller. Fantastical! The rating for this book would be off the scale.

Pike is Genius

I am 21 years old and I have been a fan of Christopher Pike's since I was 13.I was worried that because of my age I would not love the Alosha series like I would his other books.Its suppose to be a series for children but does not read like that at all.All 3 books are amazingly insightfull and emotionaly overwelhming but especially this book.Its filled with fairy tales,things that warm your heart,and things that break your heart.Its absolute Genius and defintly lives up to Pike's skill.No matter what your age read this book
