Castle Glower is the true star of this charming story of court intrigue and magic. A satisfying mix of Hogwarts and Howl's Moving Castle, Castle Glower helps its true citizens, but never at the expense of plot or character development . . . Adventure stories fans will enjoy this as much as children who wear their wizard cloaks proudly * Praise for 'Tuesdays at the Castle', SLJ *
A sweet, funny, sincere story in which siblings work together * Praise for 'Wednesdays in the Tower', Kirkus *
