Book Overview

In the first book of a new series by the bestselling author of How to Train Your Dragon, the warring worlds of Wizards and Warriors collide in a thrilling and enchanting adventure.

Once there were Wizards, who were Magic, and Warriors, who were not. But Xar, son of the King of Wizards, can't cast a single spell. And Wish, daughter of the Warrior Queen, has a banned magical object of her own. When they collide in the wildwood, on the trail of a deadly witch, it's the start of a grand adventure that just might change the fabric of their worlds.

With Cressida Cowell's trademark wit, and the same stunning combination of action, adventure, heart, humor, and incredible artwork that made How to Train Your Dragon a beloved bestselling franchise, The Wizards of Once will transport and enchant readers.

I LOVE these books.

These books are the perfect level of complex political intrigue, relationship dynamics spanning generations, and magic systems for upper elementary and middle grade readers. I read this as an adult and thoroughly enjoyed it throughout and I think my 5th grade students would love it as much as I did. It’s perfectly appropriate for any reader up to the skill level and I think it would be enjoyed by young and old folks alike. It follow a set of 12 year olds (one girl and two boys) and used all three of their perspectives intermixed. I will recommend this to even my most reluctant readers as a good option that is accessible to a wide array of children. I am a big reader and read roughly a book a week across genres and age ranges and this was probably one of my favorite series I’ve read in a few years.

Great book
