4.5

An upbeat middle grade book with a darkish turn.
There’s death, war and violence, buy without the fear or gruesomeness.

Plot was great, but 2/3 into it it felt like the story had been split in 2, without a clear ending for the 1st.

Also the argument for
Oberon being banished instead of held in the dungeons
wasn’t strong enough.

P.D. Please beware, you can’t stop a fire (for minor that it looks) with flour. Please just asume all sorts of dust are flammable.
