Review Summaries
"It is the story of Vilmos, Adrina, Seth and Galan. Vilmos is a boy who lived a miserable life. But one day, he all that changes. He uses his "special" powers and changes his fate forever. Soon he goes on a fantastic adventure where he will meet some strange creatures and new friends, like Xith. Vilmos and his friends come across many obstacles along the way, but, in the end, he overcomes them. It is a story of true friendship and finding your inner self. Vilmos learned who he truly was behind his old, plain and simple life.
Adrina is a girl who was terribly sad. She wishes the world would change but doesn't ever think it will. She is so miserable and sad. But like Vilmos, something happens and her whole life changes unexpectedly and not like she hopes it will either. I was so sad for her a lot of the times but also glad she gets to go on an adventure with a good friend like Emel. Like Vilmos, Adrina starts to learn more about who she really is and how she only a girl can make a difference in the world.
Seth and Galan are the elves. They got to sail from their home to the faraway lands where Adrina and Vilmos and all the other people live."
