The emerald atlas

Interesting, a good amount of dark, and a good amount of complexity. My only issue was that I listened to it, and Jim Dale drives me nuts.

I think I'm going to have to make a shelf for books about orphans since I seem to read so many of them. The Emerald Atlas is a fantastic adventure story about three children, a wizard, a witch, and a mysterious book. Using the book, the children are able to travel through time.

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I think I may actually check it out of the library and read it with my eyes too because I'm sure there are details I missed and I will want to be prepared for the sequels. The characters are believable and easy to empathize with. The book kindled in me a desire to research dwarf society. All in all, a fun young adult fantasy.
