The Warrior/Wizard Heir

Yesterday, I read The Warrior Heir by Cinda Williams Chima. I had previously read The Wizard Heir before I realized it was book 2 in the series.

The Warrior Heir is young adult reading, in the middle school grades, and is interesting and creative fantasy. While the plot is not terribly original, the characters and plot unfold in a readable, accessible way.
I enjoyed The Warrior Heir more than The Wizard Heir, but both books combined make me want to read The Dragon Heir, the last book in the series.

These books are highly rated on Amazon.com and I recommend them for light, enjoyable reading. You can buy a boxed set at Amazon, and that's what I'll be getting my nephew for his birthday.
