NIGHTSPELL By: Leah Cypess Young Adult Literature

NIGHTSPELL  By: Leah Cypress
It's been four years since Darri's sister, Callie, was taken from her home and sent to live in Ghostland, a place where the dead linger, hoping to seek revenge of the living. And, after traveling hundreds of miles, battling the toughest terrain and evil ghosts, the warrior princess, Darri, has finally come to save her sister. She will do anything to get Callie home to safety, including sacrificing herself to be married to the Ghostland king, defeating an evil sorcerer, and out-maneuvering a manipulative tribal warrior (who just so happens to be her older brother). But no matter what Darri does, it might not be enough. Callie has changed in the four years that she and Darri have been apart. Now she has a secret, one that may keep the two sisters apart forever. Ages 12 and up. $16.99 Reviewed by Maggie age 16. Greenwillow
