Ever wonder what it would be like to be captured inside of an unbreakable cube? One that cannot be stopped from shrinking and shrinking? One with no way to make it stop? Psst! A tip -- the book's title is misleading Written by New York Times Best Selling Author Lyndon Hardy Some of the reviews of the first edition: This is how fiction is written!!-- Charles Kos, Ph.D. Loved it to pieces. Except for maybe The Hobbit, this is probably the greatest fantasy work I have ever read -- Amazon customer A worthy sequel to Master of the Five Magics -- Amazon Customer I thoroughly recommend this novel to anyone -- Amazon customer Great book -- jahomby Well written, a new twist on the world of magic. Swords and sorcery at its best -- Amazon customer Classic fantasy-- Craig Deburon Probably one of the best pieces of Fantasy fiction I've ever read-- Amazon customer Note: Some of the reviews below mention that some chapters of The Secret of the Sixth Magic ebook edition are out of order. When originally published on Amazon, they indeed were, but this error has been fixed for any downloads now. Print editions have always been fine. From Goodreads When I started this book, I had a pretty good idea of where it was going.And then,I realized I was completely wrong. As the story developed, I also developedtheories on how it would play out, and every time, I ended up being wrong. Whilst reading, I think I took a lot of the book for granted. I enjoyed it, butthinking back on it, I realize that the world embedded itself in my memory alot more than I realized it would. I have grown fonder of the world the more Ithink about it,and in fact I'll probably re-read it for that reason. I did not realize the book was the second in a series, but that apparently madeno difference, because I don't feel that I've missed anything from thenarrative. If you like fantasy with lots of fairly detailed magic, then you should readthis book. It's a fun read, the setting is beautiful and diverse, and the magicis deep. Highly recommended -- Goodreads Reviewer From Random House/Del Rey Lyndon Hardy brings us a story in which the rigorous application of logic givesan added dimension of reality to fantasy-- Lester Del Rey
