I love a person who can write with absolute abandon, letting his imagination take full reign in the story and do whatever he wants. That's exactly what Ken Hughes has done with "The High Road." Since we know it's the first in the Spellkeeper Flight series, that means there will be more magical, mystical stories with these wonderful characters. This book includes many things I love--lifelong friendships, urban settings, lots of magic, and villains that are truly evil. What's worse than running from a gang when you're only nine years old? That gang continuing their pursuit when you're a young adult. Urban gangs are frightening yet fascinating and Hughes has used this in a way that truly gives you shivers. Just remember, there's a promise of more to come, and you'll want to read these books took. I was offered a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I had a rough time just reading this book (but that could just be a personal issue). I found the plot to be more running and talking over a meal than anything else. The MC was a little flat, especially in the beginning, because his initial motivations felt disconnected from his choices. The magic was the best part and I think I would have enjoyed it more except for the above issues.
I think the author has potential and simply lacks experience, so I'll be checking back on the author in the future.
