Bobby Ether and the Academy Book Review

18501115Book: Bobby Ether and the Academy

 

Author: R. Scott Boyer

 

Given by: Create Space via Net Galley

 

Rating: 5/5 Won-derfuls (Amazing!) 

 

If you are a fan of YA and/or fantasy you need to read this book. Now. Capisce? Bobby Ether and the Academy  is an adventurous tale exploring the power of children, the mind, friendship, energy, and magic. Okay, well maybe not magic because according to one of the characters "There is no such thing as magic." It looked a lot like magic to me though! 


I was captivated from the first chapter by our young hero, Bobby. After experiencing some pretty odd things followed by some pretty terrible things, Bobby is taken to Tibet to learn about said odd and terrible events. Here he makes both friends and enemies of epic proportions. 

 

Boyer created characters and settings that held me captive until the very last page. I loved be taken to jade mines, gardens manned by monks, a bear cave, and many other imaginative locations. If there is not another book after this one I may have a temper tantrum like a toddler... This is definitely going to be a YA series to watch out for!
