Review

There is an 8th day that was created by Merlin, Arthur and his knights. People living in the 8th day world have to stay there and people living in the 7 day world have to stay there. The transitioners are people that can travel between the two. Jax, the main character, is one of the transitioners. There are people that want to destroy the 7 day world and only have an 8th day and Jax is going to be caught up this this fight. Lots of magic and action. There is a bit of humor and the King Arthur/Merlin part is cool. Grades 4-8. I would give this 4+ out of 5 stars.

Overall Book Score: excellent
