This is a really good book. It is set in the time of Oliver Cromwell – the crazy dude who banned Christmas but Charles the 2nd reinstated it thank goodness – It is full of adventure and magic. I really enjoyed reading it and it has a gorgeous cover. Great read for ages 12+

I think that Kate Forsyth is a wonderful writer and I love the fact that for once, she has made the gypsies the heroes of the book. This book is an epic tale about gypsies being put in jail for being gypsies but Emilia and Luka manage to escape and they have to find charms to lift the families curse. Will they save their family? Read this book to find out!
