Book Talk:
One late night Wisty and Whit Allgood are kidnapped from their beds, taken by agents of a new world order where individuality and creativity are banned. Something about Wisty and Whit Allgood scares the leader of this new government so they are thrown in prison with barely a trial but the brother and sister escape with the help of powers they didn’t know they had. Now the siblings must find their parents, save the world, and discover if they really are the foretold Witch & Wizard.
Book Review:
There seem to be a lot of gimmicks in this book rather than any deep characters or plot lines but the book is entertaining enough. The book alternates between the view points of the main characters Wisty and Whit Allgood which is an interesting concept but is poorly executed at times just because both characters don't always seem to have a distinctive voice. For fans of the Maximum Ride series by Patterson there are several references to the series used as an inside joke. In many ways, Witch & Wizard reads like a movie probably because of the physical humor and descriptions used by Patterson. I’d recommend this book to anyone 11+ who is looking for a quick, entertaining fantasy or adventure story.
"I really enjoyed this book because of its fast paced action and suspense. It has a equal amount of all genres like fantasy, fiction and ect. This book makes me feel sad and amazed at the same time." Christi R., 14.
