Reviews for The Alchemyst
Excellent
I just loved the imagination and daring that Michael Scott has. He's shown it so well in the book beautifully portraying characters and storyline. I feel that I am getting Tolkeins detail (to a lesser extent) mixed with a mature storyline (insert author here). Written (I think) for 12+ but adults may enjoy the edpth and intellligence of it. I give it a four because it doesn't have quiet enough pace and takes time to develop. Having said that I am a hard judge so can't bring it up to 5- more a 9/10... by Kirsty McKellar
