Spectacular!

I heart this book! Readers will love the adventure as you follow Weasel through his journey to find the Falcon. Plus if you like this book, there are two more that follow! ~One of the best books ever!

HILARI BELL AT HER BEST!

WHAT A JOY TO FIND A GREAT SERIES. WEASEL IS A MEMORABLE CHARACTER. THIS IS EVEN SUITABLE FOR A BOY.

Another Bell Masterpiece!

Hilari Bell never disappoints her readers, giving us fresh ideas and life-like characters with intriguing situations that keep the pages turning. I've been a fantasy and science fiction fan for several decades and enjoy the novelty of her novels. Although her books are labeled "young adult", even us seniors and those between will enjoy her work. If the other books in the The Shield, Sword, and Crown series are as spectacular as Shield of Stars readers are in for a treat they'll read again and again! This one is as great as Hilari Bell's Songs of Power and Matter of Profit, my two favorites of her books (and in the top 10 of all books I've read.)

Excellent adventure book

I read this book aloud to my daughter in an effort to get her to realize that there are more books out there than Harry Potter! It was a good read with enough action, twists and suspense that she frequently asked for "one more chapter..." at bedtime. We're looking forward to reading the next book in the trilogy!

FANTASY ROCKS!!!!!!

I LOVE fantasy and this book is great. I rank it with the Forgotten Realms and Artemis Fowl!!! Absolutely wonderful!
