Wonderful!

Even though I read this book a while ago, I still remember that I absolutely loved it! The story of Edward is very intruiging. For another book like this, I reccomend A Circle of Silver about John MacNeil, which I think, but am not sure is a part of this same series. These are wonderful books that inspire your intrest from the first page, to the last. Enjoy!
