It was great
I would recommend to all of my friends. A great book. I will read the whole set of books.
This is a great book with lots of magic and mystery. My favourite characters are Xar, Wish and Squeezjoos. I recommend it to people who like stories with adventures and magic. It was a great read and I’m sure I will read more books from this series. But I rate it 4 stars because the book is very long, but hopefully the other books from the series aren’t as long.
Wizards of once was a good book but it was not my favourite. The best part was when Squeezjoos got witchblood stained on him but it was annoying that Zar didn't have any magic.
It's so cool
I love the book because of the fantasy
It was amazing and I loved all the unexpected twists and turns like when I found out wish was magic.
I recommend to a lot of people
It was the best book in my life! I wish there was like 10 of these in the series! Good job Cressida Cowell!
I think that the wizards of once(1st book) is a very good start to a 4 book sequel it really keeps you intrigued.
I would definitely recommend this book to my friends. It's awesome!
good
I got the entire series for my birthday, and all four of the books are absolutely AMAZING!
Adventurous and funny, with lovable heros and a beautiful plot, this book is among the best ones I've ever read.
Upon reading this, you will enter a world of great imaginination.
I love when xar and wish meet because they are saving the world
This is one my favourite. I adore it and Cressida Cowell. It is magical and I recommend it to those who like fantasy, adventure, magic and action
I liked the book.
I liked Wish or the Spoon best
Great
This book is a magical adventure clearly showing the difference between good and bad magic. My favourite characters were definitely Xar and Wish. I like Xar because
he is very brave and I like Wish because she knows what is good and bad and found out she was a Great Enchanter. I would recommend it to someone else.
I liked Wish Xar best because they're both like me. Xar is mischievous and likes going on expeditions, and Wish is very different and crazy.
This book is a very mysterious and exiting book
It was very very good and it was also a bit scary because near the end there was a king inside the stone. Luckily by the time it was back out it was too weak to do lots more damage.
Zar a rebel .
It was fiction book and it’s a adventure story. The main characters were Wish and Xar, Xar is a wizard and wish is a warrior with magical powers.
I would recommend this book to someone else.
This book is great, I loved reading it.
I liked Xar a lot and I liked the book because it’s exiting and a great book
