Finally filled the void

+ A very enjoyable read.
+ good and it gets better

Like many Potter fans, I was looking for something to fill the void. I have found it!!! I am on book 2 in the series and can say that Sage keeps the action coming, the fantasy alive, and the characters believable. I can't bear the thought of finishing this series-what will i do then???!!!
