From School Library Journal:

Grade 5–8—Jenny Nimo's satisfying conclusion (Orchard, 2010) to the series features a missing will, evildoers attempting to thwart Charlie and his friends, and the hope provided by a mysterious Red Knight. All of the endowed will have to use their gifts to defeat the evil half of the Red King's descendants. Simon Jones gives each character a unique voice. Listeners must be familiar with the plots and characters from the previous seven books to understand the concluding title. Purchase only where demand for the series exists.—Ann Brownson, Eastern Illinois University, Charleston
