Great adventure book with friends and challenges. Reminds me of the books I read as a kid. Really well done.

Thank you to Netgalley for the free arc in exchange for an honest review.

I received an electronic ARC from Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing through NetGalley.
The saga of these five friends continues as they work to thwart the next world domination plot of the Diberi. Each has grown in their magical abilities and developed their strengths. Again, Effie is the central character but we see the other four establish themselves independently too.
Thomas spins a magical story about this universe and the Otherworld where magic is commonplace. This third book wraps up their stories but leaves hints if she chooses to write further books on them as they complete their apprenticeships.
Upper elementary and middle school readers will identify with the doubts and triumphs of the characters.
Trigger/Topic Concern - An abusive situation - verbal & physical - is part of the story line. Don't miss the mom standing up in front of the entire crowd and sharing info young people need to hear.
