Too much for me...
Tipper is the daughter of a sculptor who disappeared some years ago. She has been left to deal with the estate of her family in his absence and has been forced to sell some of his works of art. But when her father returns she finds out that she's done something terrible and needs to undo it. She enlists the help of a few friends to go on a magical quest to undo what was done. I could not get into the story at all. I feel like the reader was simply dropped into this fantasy world that Paul has created (in another series apparently). However being a stand-alone book this should have indeed stood alone and not been a continuation of the series proceeding it. I also had a very big problem with the characters. Tipper is just about one of the most annoying characters I've ever read. She is consistently the victim although it does get better throughout the book. Not to mention the great wizard Fenworth who is a huge snob. I usually can do a good fantasy but this one was just too deep in for me and like I said having been a stand-alone book this should have reeled me in a little bit better but it failed to do so. Can't say I would really recommend this book. Perhaps I would recommend this as a part of the series but not standing alone.
