This is the sequel to the Witch Boy, but it would be possible to read it out of order. There might be some catch-up, but not enough to really affect the story. This is a story about friendship. About how people from different walks of life can be friends. How sometimes friends see the danger before the person experiencing it does. This book is about family. It’s about love acceptance and everything else that made book number one so fantastic. Book number two does not suffer from the second book slump and is as good as book number one. My nephew had been begging me to finish this all weekend because he’s reading it and he wanted to talk to me about it. I look forward to our conversation next time he’s here.
