Sarah and her twin brother Jon are heirs to an ancient magical realm and its most valuable treasure, an enchanted library. The library endows readers with the supernatural means of crossing into the uncharted inner-sanctum of the second dimension, inhabited with peculiar and sometimes perilous creatures.
The children are emboldened with a wondrous mystical gift that no other being has ever possessed. But fate intervenes and triggers a disastrous inter-dimensional war that disrupts the fabric of time and space spanning multiple universes, tearing destiny a new and savage pathway.
The two must rescue their world from a phantom hybrid alien race controlled by a demented dark-wizard, Jeremy Sermack. They will either assimilate or be exterminated.
Will they be the saviors the prophets spoke of, or will they retreat to the perceived safety of their distant homeland?

TwoSpells by Mark Morrison is an excellent book. This book follows the two main characters Sarah and Jon on this amazing adventure. They are in Wales to visit their grandparents and learn a lot about themselves. It has a great plot but at times I was confused about somethings. Which I will explain further in the review. This book is really good so please look at the positive.
What I liked about the book:
- The plot like I already said is something that I enjoyed a lot. It’s also because of the plot that I decided to read this book.
- This book has a lot of the things that I like in a fantasy type book. That is a huge plus for me and I did enjoy it even when I was confused.
- The characters are all pretty realistic in my opinion. Even if some of them did disappear and then didn’t come back for quite some time.
- The power that the twins have is so cool. I can’t wait to see how that develops more in the next book.
What I disliked about the book:
It felt like, to me, there was a lot of plot holes in the book. Granted it might be because I took a bit longer than I thought to read the book. I just thought that there were some plot holes about the twin’s mom, their dad, and a bunch of others. Another thing is I felt like we were introduced to a lot of characters and that there might have been too many. I know that I never say that but it seems like it, again to me, at least in this book. Also, I disliked that there were a ton of fast-paced scenes that could have been removed and made way to know a bit more about the library or more about the twins themselves.
What I am curious about:
Of course, like always how the next book will be and what it will be about? Along with how they are going to get the things back that they lost?
Five Stars
Despite what I said above about TwoSpells by Mark Morrison this is a five-star book. It has kept me entertained for a while which is good. I also had some dreams about it and it has stayed in my head for a few days after finishing it. I do recommend this book.
Anyways until the next time enjoy this review brought to you by
