Kingston and the Magician's Lost and Found by Rucker Moses, Theo Gangi
3.0
I received an eARC courtesy of G.P. Putnam's Sons Books for Young Readers & NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
Magic & mystery are at the forefront in this adventure. While the book starts off super slow once the action of the story really gets going it is sure to captivate readers. Adults will undoubtedly be frustrated with the poor choices that King makes throughout, but the younger readers will probably not notice the signs of impending doom. The "echoes" theory is a bit convoluted, but the overall story of loss of family and magic is sure to overshadow the shortcomings.
For libraries: Purchase where you have demand for magic themes.
