    This is really a fantastic book! The dogged persistence from a friend who insisted I had to read this novel, I kind of had my doubts because it seemed to me this was going to be another Harry Potter-like book, which I really wasn’t in the mood for. I reluctantly started reading it, and soon found myself lost in a gorgeous new world full of magic, wondrous beings and breathtaking landscapes.

    I have to admit that early on in the book I was already smitten with the characters and deeply entangled in the imaginative storyline. I was constantly surprised by the author’s creativity and in awe of Yden and its inhabitants – good and bad. I was touched by the friendship formed between strangers and enemies and had a few good laughs at the banter between Jon and his ragtag group of friends.

    Magic, dragons, mystical creatures, colorful backdrops and an evil black wolf whose name made me giggle every time I read it; it often reminded me of a movie I used to watch as a kid, titled ‘The Never-ending Story”. S.G. Rogers has expertly crafted an ingenious masterpiece which transports the reader away from reality into a world that will enrapture readers of all ages. Highly recommended!

    I totally loved this book! My daughter is an artist as well so Jon was especially fun to follow. The characters were great & storyline completely unique. I don't sway into YA a lot but I'm really glad I did. A must read for any fantasy, dragon, or magic lover.

    Great Fantasy!!!

    When I started reading The Last Great Wizard of Yden I was instantly transported into the life of Jon Hansen. On his 16th birthday his father vanished before his eyes like in a magic show. With his world turned upside down Jon begins his search into his fathers mysterious past. With the help of his sister and his friends Jon finds out his father is from a different world where magic is real. I really enjoyed following Jon on his journey of discovery and look forward to reading more books from this wonderful author!
