Young adult fantasy and adventure readers will love this book and the series that goes along with it. The hero Delvin has a secret and a knack for making friends and the reader is caught up in the story as the action unfolds!
Thanks for the great review pointing out that the book is enjoyable with no errors.

This book is becoming irresistible. Having read the review of the first, second and now the third series, it's crystal clear that the author knows how to get the attention of his readers with engaging action and suspense. Congrats on #BOTD!

It's good to know that the third book in the series is just as strong as the previous installments; it's no mean feat. Delvin finally coming into his own as a magician sounds pretty gratifying as well.

The Magic Lantern is another book in the series by Charles Townsend. He is a great writer and I look forward to this amazing story. The questions in this review make me curious, I would like to know what happened to Delvin. Thank you for the review, I like that you pointed out the lessons in the book. Congratulations to the author on BOTD.

Adding "The Magic Lantern" by Charles Townsend to my reading list! The third book in the series promises an action-packed adventure as Delvin and his friends face off against the relentless magicians. With smooth pacing and engaging storytelling, Townsend keeps readers hooked from start to finish. While the focus on Delvin may overshadow other characters, the message of perseverance shines through. Rating it 5 out of 5 stars for its compelling narrative and professionally edited content. Can't wait to dive into this fantasy adventure!

Despite defeat in the first and second books in the series, the magicians try again to conquer the cities of Hengel and Argent. Delvin is forced to use his magic stone again to save the cities. But will he succeed? The black magician is someone to look out for! The fast pace of the story keeps readers interested throughout their reading session. I enjoyed reading your review.

Hi @Tejas Koli, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Magic Lantern" and I agree this book continues the action from book 2 and I think all three books are excellent for adults too. The magic tricks are wonderful and since a magician never tells his secrets one will have to try to figure them out by themselves. An enjoyable series. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @Shanesha Sammerson, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Magic Lantern" and I enjoyed your summary. This is another excellent book by Charles Townsend and while it is only a three book series, I hope he considers adding a 4th book. I think that even though this book was written for young adults it is a good read for adults too. @Mrlefty0706

Hi @Runan, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Magic Lantern" and I agree with your summary. All three books have been wonderful and well-written. This series may have been written for young adults, but I found the books are great for adults too. @Mrlefty0706

This story revolves around the duchies of Hengel and Argent and is quite engrossing. It will be good to discover what the Magician’s Guild is plotting this time round in this third instalment of this series. I note the main character Delvin has a new apprentice Nippy. Thanks for the review.

I just read this excellent review of book three even though I have not even finished reading the first book yet. I have to admit that the author is a very talented writer.

This is the third installment in this series that follows Delvin, a magician and Jarla as they try to defeat their enemies and save the kingdom. I love that reading the first two books in the series left you wanting to read more, thanks for sharing that in your review!

Hi @Miracle Kingss, I just read your comments on the official review of "The Magic Lantern" and I highly recommend that you read all three books. They are well-written and enjoyable reads. Even though the books were written for young adults I think they are also great for adults. Delvin has really matured and is not only a very good man, but he is also an excellent magician. @Mrlefty0706
