It started off a little slow, but I still found the beginning to be very enjoyable. I got bored in the middle of the story, and wanted to stop reading, but I kept reading it in the hopes that it would get better.

I did like the part where the kids were trying to find the Ugly-Wuglies a place to stay and ended up at the Temple of Flora. I also liked the magic in the novel. It wasn’t very obvious, but it was mentioned. Plus, there were mentioned of greek gods and goddess, who have a role towards the end of the book.

I’d have to say that the beginning and the end were my favorite parts of the book, with the middle being the boring part of the book. However, it was an easy read, and I loved that ring was the source of the magic.

I give it a 3 out of 5.
