1 post | 2 read | 2 to read
On one side of the Rift is a technological paradise without famine or want. On the other side is a mystery. Sixteen-year-old Glenn Morgan has lived next to the Rift her entire life and has no idea of what might be on the other side of it. Glenn's only friend, Kevin, insists the fence holds back a world of monsters and witchcraft, but magic isn't for Glenn. She has enough problems with reality: Glenn's mother disappeared when she was six, and soon after, she lost her scientist father to his all-consuming work on the mysterious Project. Glenn buries herself in her studies and dreams about the day she can escape. But when her father's work leads to his arrest, he gives Glenn a simple metal bracelet that will send Glenn and Kevin on the run---with only one place to go. With MAGISTERIUM, Jeff Hirsch brings us the story of a complex, captivating world that will leave readers breathless until the very last page.

I remember reading this book when I was younger and thinking it was boring. I started reading it again, but I wish I hadn't. This book is obviously for grade schoolers. However, I know that even if I had read it when I was younger, I still would have disliked it. All the characters were static or flat, and the whole Affinity thing was weird. It's a shame, I really liked Jeff Hirsch's other books, this one was just a let down.
