Summary: The long awaited 5th book in the Series
Comment: It's a little while after we left off with Nita and Kit in A Wizard Abroad and they're a little older, a little wiser, and a little more in control. But after a fight they fear that they're divided forever. But after this fight they find themselves immeaditally pulled apart even more as they both embark on seperate journies.
Nita has a lot to deal with when her mother gets sick with a cancer that could kill her. She tries to use her wizardry to help her but soon finds out that the only way to solve it might be to give up eveything she's worked for. Kit's busy too. One day when he's out walking his dog, Ponch, he finds himself in a whole new world, literaly. Can the two pull together in time to solve the problem? Or are they divided for good.
I was nearly jumping out of my seat when I heard that their was going to be a 5th book in this series and now I pray Diane Duane will write a new one soon. She once again brings the charecters we all know and love alive once again. This book is one of the best ones in the series to date (next to Deep Wizardry). I reccomend this book to anyone whose a fan of the Young Wizards Series and I reccomend this series to fans of magic. I'll be sure to read this one again and again.

Summary: Another 5-star Addition to Duane's Wizardry Series
Comment: The fifth book in Duane's "So You Want to Be a Wizard" series continues the journey of Nita and Kit as Nita struggles to save her mother's life while Kit finds himself able to create new universes. The two partner's disagreements are thrown aside as the two learn that Nita's mother is slowly being destroyed by cancer cells that only the most complex magic can stop. Not only that, but a new friend is found to be inhabited by the Lone One. Nita finds that she must choose between her magic and her mother's life in a "dilema" harder than any challenge she has faced before.

Summary: Fascinating, deep, story.
Comment: At 22, I love this series as much as ever.
I see the standard fantasy battle between good and evil as a reflection of the ethical struggles and dilemmas we face. Thus, I like my fantasy to bring out the interior struggles and dilemmas the characters face.
Diane Duane excels at this, and nowhere does she demonstrate it more clearly than in this book. We all come up against the limits of our abilities. Where we go from there isn't just a wizard's dilemma!
This book really kept me reading until the end; Nita came so close to messing it up that I wondered how (and if) she was going to get out of this one.
I just don't feel that level of suspense with most fantasy; you know there will be a happy ending.
P.s.
Did anyone else think of the flight from Tolkien's Numenor when Kit saw the ships in that one world he made? 8-D
