Assassins
Ten children taught themselves the ancient arts, unknowingly surpassing the greatest mages in the land. Then the wizards from the Academy came to town, but not on a recruitment mission. They were there to hunt rogue mages, and they suspect the children.
Molly, Tanner and Liam lead their friends in search of the Bluebacks--a rebel force intent on overthrowing the empire. Not everyone is as they seem, and the newly formed fellowship find themselves faced with an impossible test to prove their loyalty. They're tasked with assassinating Baron Haman--the cousin of Prince Malachi, known in the city of Ashban as "the ratcatcher" for hunting down Bluebacks in the city.
Will the Secret Seven join this war with an act of cold-blooded killing, or will they find another way to save Benny, their families and their lives?

EXCITEMENT OF FANTASY, DANGER, MYSTERY AND OH MY!!
I continue to enjoy these books, but.....$4.99 per book, a 5 book series is now a 6th!!! Hmmm pricey for a lengthy chapter style series?!?! If there is no attempt to round up all the "Lions, Tigers and Bears, Oh My!!!" ...I shall have to reluctantly end this extremely lengthy storyline! Even Harry Potter was allowed to grow and age with each book! There are only so many cliff hangers I can read, while each character is only aging by the day or week! So, Mr. Daniels, as the saying goes... "I've had about all the fun I can enjoy!! At least Tolkien starts with a 500+ page book, and the sequels are equally long, but again, you know from the get-go, there are 3 THREE lengthy books involved, with many chapters devoted to various life forms, even humanity is mentioned in passing, as the various gatherings are delved into! But after book 3, I discover now there's a book 6?!?! It's a great fantasy, if you have a Money Tree in your backyard (I certainly don't!!) I will have to leave your Merry-go-round and journey on to more satisfying, cheaper, and ENDING Story Books! To everyone else, flip a coin!
