Summary: Another Woodruff Winner
Comment: I'm a huge fan of Elvira Woodruff's. I first started reading her books when my kids did, now that they're grown I keep reading them. In fact, I buy them and save them for my (fingers crossed) grandchildren. This one is my favorite along with the Christmas Doll. She is such an amazing writer, right up there with E.B. White and CHARLES DICKENS!
But now for the Ravenmaster. I don't know how she does it, but from page 1 I am right there in the tower of London with Forrest and Rat and the secret prisoner. I care from the very beginning what happens to each of them, and I also care for all the other characters in the book, 'cept one, but I'll let you read it so you can discover the Fagan.... Anyway, I highly recommend this book for any age child, even one in her fifties like me! I will be very suprised if this book does not become a classic. It should--and it should end up with a few awards, too. In my humbe (o.k.--I'm a librarian, too) opinion.

Summary: THIS ONE DESERVES MAJOR AWARDS
Comment: Ravenmaster's Secret has it all - well-rounded characters, interesting time period, fascinating setting and an intriguing, action-packed plot.
Read it with your children or by yourself and find your heart touched by lines like these: "I do know that a man's greatness cannot be measured by his size. 'Tis a man's character that is the source of his strength. And weakness there cannnot be hidden."
This one's a winner and will stay with you long after you've read it.
