Gr 5-8-Harry Potter fans will enjoy this third book in Diane Duane's Wizardry series (Delacorte, pap. 1997) which includes So You Want to Be a Wizard (Harcourt, pap. 1996), Deep Wizardry (Harcourt, pap. 1996), and A Wizard Abroad (Harcourt, 1997). Narrator Christina Moore does a fine job, changing voice and pitch to match the characters in the book. Young wizards Nita and her friend, Kit, must try to save Nita's younger sister, Darine, from a dark power called the Lone One, when she begins experimenting with her new found wizard skills. The sixth tape is an interesting interview with the author. With the current interest in Harry Potter, this is another series in the same genre that will appeal to youngsters.-Kay Stith, Manhattan USD 383, KS Copyright 2000 Cahners Business Information.
