Summary: from good reads
Orphans Jennifer Strange 16, manager of Kazam mages, and apprentice Tiger Prawns 12, stand in the way of The Mighty Shandar. Shandar must kill last two dragons for King of Snodd in Ununited Kingdoms. Jen needs legendary jewel The Eye of Zoltar, last seen on pirate, and to tutor spoiled Princess Shazzarine. Perilous journey has 50% Fatality Index.
Feelings:
The Eye of Zoltar, the third book in the Chronicles of Kazam, was just as interesting as the previous two. At the end of the last book Jennifer was getting ready to go on a date with Perkins a young wizard. In this story they get a very strange first date chasing a Tralfamosaur.
I love the made up creatures that populate this series. Jennifer Strange may not have magic herself but as the head of the magical house Kazam she is in charge of plenty of wizards.
The world that is created in this series is so much fun. A little dangerous, yes, but full of adventure. This is a series for young adults but it is a fun read for all ages.
