Dizz Tate: Books That Made Me Want to Write: Dizz Tate’s Bookshelf for Brutes (0 comment)
When I was writing my book, Brutes, there came a point where I wanted to be thinking about it even when I was so tired of it I couldn’t bear to look at it anymore. I was also terrified of leaving it alone, like the book would forget me if I stopped reminding it I was there...

Publisher Comments

Poor Henry. It’s not enough that his mother has sent him away from home to learn magic. It’s not enough that everyone at his new school calls him Thornmallow because he’s “prickly on the outside, squishy within.” It’s not enough that the only talent he shows at Wizard’s Hall is an ability to make messes of even the simplest spells. Now, when Wizard’s Hall is threatened by a cruel sorcerer’s fearsome beast, it is up to Henry--er, Thornmallow--to figure out how to save not only his new friends but also the entire school for wizards.

Review

"Wizards Hall has it all: fairy-tale wonder, baffling mystery, captivating magic, edge-of-the-seat suspense, [and] wry humor....Captivating."—Publishers Weekly

"Yolen skillfully blends the traditions of fantasy and school story....Good, imaginative fun."—Kirkus Reviews

"Blends wizardry and enchantment in fluid, graceful prose."—School Library Journal
