Jinx- The story of a boy, found by the wizard Simon, and taken in to be his apprentice. As Jinx grows up, he starts becoming more and more curious about the mysterious visitors Simon brings into the house, the locked room Jinx is forbidden to enter, Simon's elusive "wife" from far away, and the evil wizard called the "Bonemaster". A very exciting book filled with fast action and quirky characters.

Really fun if you love adventure and magic. Can't wait to read the sequel.
