I read this book when I was yunger and found it entrancing. I couldn't put it down for the life of me! The book is an easy read and it shows that there is evil in the world and that it is not an isolated point in the universe, alternate or otherwise. The characters are relatable, and I praise Foster for his imaginative view on what would happen to a law student that is pulled from our world into the next. Besides, who could resist big fuzzy animals, horrific battles, senile wizards, and a tall hot guy who plays the duar? Hmmm...
