REVIEW: SMOKE & MIRRORS BY JEFF MAXIM!

 Hey everyone! Today I have a review for Smoke and Mirrors by Jeff Maxim, a MG fantasy story that I wound up loving! Check it out below and order from End Game Press!




ABOUT THE BOOK 

When thirteen-year-old Stewart is abandoned at a bleak boarding school, he discovers a hidden world of dragons, dark magic, and ancient prophecy. With an apocalyptic threat rising, Stewart must find courage, faith, and true allies--because no one can fight the darkness alone. Perfect for fans of middle grade Christian fantasy filled with adventure, family, and hope.

MY REVIEW

Right from the start up until the end, I was absolutely drawn in and obsessed with this story! Stewart goes through a lot of growth through the book, and you never really know which characters you can trust or what's going to happen next. It has just about everything--dragons, a smart kiddo, Middle Grade humor that lightens up the heavier scenes, and a memorable cast you'll want to keep reading about. It's a stellar book that just about anyone (middle grade and up) can enjoy! There are a lot of really good themes (both for kids and adults, honestly) about pride, honesty, humility, selflessness, and what you're willing to do to save someone.
