Zoe Loprest- Thirteen Treasures by Michelle Harrison

Thirteen Treasures
August 20th

            The book Thirteen Treasures by Michelle Harrison uses many classic themes of fantasy such as mythical creatures, magic, and the ideas of good and evil. When Tanya Fairchild is sent to her grandmother on account of her unnatural ability to see and interact with fairies, goblins, and other fantastical creatures. Though she hopes to possibly escape the fairy life she’s used to, the only thing she escapes is her bitter mother and her mother’s fear of Tanya’s power. Her grandmothers house is still infested with the pesky creatures, as well as a seemingly annoying boy named Fabian, a faithful dog, named Oberon, a Persian cat, and the peculiar stone faced watch guard named Amos. As Fabian and Tanya live in the mansion longer they encounter peculiar things and eventually begin to uncover the mystery behind Morwenna Bloom-a girl who went missing, fairy life, and an uninvited guest Rowan, and some secrets her grandmother may be hiding.

            I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a mystery, and a suspenseful fantasy story.  Thirteen treasures, although very complex, is an interesting story you can’t put down for to long. The characters are each thoroughly developed and unique and Michelle Harrison uses a compelling voice to make every chapter of this book intense. I look forward to reading the remainder of this series, as I am sure it will use the same voice and have the same action as Thirteen Treasures.
