"In this sequel to The Lost Gate, bestselling author Orson Scott Card continues his fantastic tale of the Mages of Westil who live in exile on Earth. Here on Earth, Danny North is still in high school, yet he holds in his heart and mind all the stolen outselves of thirteen centuries of gatemages. The Families still want to kill him if they can't control him...and they can't control him. He is far too powerful. And on Westil, Wad is now nearly powerless--he lost everything to Danny in their struggle. Even if he can survive the revenge of his enemies, he still must somehow make peace with the Gatemage Daniel North. For when Danny took that power from Loki, he also took the responsibility for the Great Gates.

You know a book is good when you're yelling OMG (multiple times) at the end. I know the next book(s) in the series have been much delayed, but will keep them on my radar.
While I enjoyed the short story, "Stonefather," in "Wizards" that started this all, and the first entry in this series, this book tanked the series. I have not read "Gatefather" and probably will not. So many interesting concepts that suffer from overcomplication, teenage angst, and lazy writing. ( )
Ser el mago más poderoso de la Tierra y Westil no hace que el instituto sea más fácil para Danny North. Si no es capaz de dominar sus habilidades no podrá mantenerse oculto a ojos de las familias mágicas, que pretenden controlar su poder, o incluso matarle, en caso de no conseguirlo.
I apparently liked this book a lot more than most people did. Yes, it wasn't perfect, and there were some things that bothered me, but it was still a very enjoyable continuation of the story. I'm looking forward to the next installment. ( )

On a certain day in November, in the early afternoon, if you had just parked your car at Kenney's burger place in Buena Vista, Virginia, or maybe you were walking into Nick's Italian Kitchen or Todd's Barbecue, you might have cast your gaze up the hill toward Parry McCluer High School.
