12 year old George has to live with her Aunt Henrietta and Uncle Constantine after her brother has gone missing. There is something mysterious happening that involves Uncle Constantine leaving and someone having Aunt Henrietta kidnapped. George and two boys, Mikal and Caleb, have a mission to rescue Aunt Henrietta and help Uncle Constantine. George, Mikal, and Caleb go on an adventure through a fantasy world and they meet “The Hag” who is a witch, dragons, and other creatures. Can George find out what is happening and successfully help Uncle Constantine? 

This book was very enjoyable because it contained vivid details and the reader could clearly imagine what was happening in the book. The book has relatable characters with good personalities, they could also be actual people. The author’s writing style made it easier to understand what was going to happen in the book without spoiling it.
