Oh, this was just fun. Gwen and Martin's kids are teens now, and discover the whole magic/computer thing on their own (mostly because Gwen, Martin, and Philip are in major trouble and the teens blame Philip). We get to see some magic that's not in the medieval England or Atlantean model, and see how strange everything in the first 5 books really is through the twins' fresh eyes.

Daniels was his typical great self; Meyers was inventive, clever, and witty (as you expect), and the story was very satisfying.

If this is the end of the road for this series, it was a great way to go. If not? I'm really going to enjoy what comes next.
