   Absolutely amazing! This book is incredibly good, with smooth action transitions and a powerful emotional impact. Every time a former enemy comes to the rescue, it's incredibly exciting. The most courageous man—the Wolf King—and the principal who initiated the fight—sometimes I felt these early villains gave me more excitement than the protagonist! The protagonist group isn't weak either; they're very united, with similar strength levels, growing and progressing together. The villains are also incredibly strong and cunning. A truly high recommendation!!!
