I’ve never seen it really work, but Dasnher did enough to avoid having it stand out (negatively) in this book. I always get a little apprehensive when a book tries to balance the notions of Science and Magic in the same universe. It probably reads and feels more middle-grade than any middle-grade novel I’ve ever read (take that to mean what you’d like.) There’s nothing really dark or extreme, so it should really be safe for all ages. (Read the book and you’ll know what a Chi’karda drive is) I’d give this novel 3.75 Chi’karda drives out of 5. He is a very kind character who loves his family and I really like that. The book is cool and it is fun to learn more about Chi’karda which is very interesting. It shows lots of different points of views and I like that too. It makes you feel like you are actually in the movie. I can relate to the main character because he is my age and that is really cool.

I gave this book five stars because it was very descriptive. They find out that the wand doesn’t have a Chi’karda drive and that Tick has some sort of power over Chi’karda. He goes to the Thirteenth Reality to get Mistress Jane’s Chi’karda wand, and when they are trying to escape the Fangen, Tick winks them all to the headquarters. On the day of the special date he gets winked to the Realitant Headquarters, and meets the other kids who received the letters and become Realitants second class. Frazier Gunn tries to kill Tick and his dad while they are in Alaska trying to see where the letter came from (he learns who the letters are coming from) he gets saved by a girl who he has been emailing who gets the letters too named Sophia. He decides to do it and he encounters many different challenges, including Tingle Wraiths a man named Frazier Gunn. This book is about a boy named Atticus (Tick) Higginbottom.
