Summary: Give it a chance
Review: Well all I can say is that it is a shame that so many seem to deem this book not worthy. This story was so fantastic. It may have gotten a little complex at some moments, but it kept me wondering what was the real truth. When I read this, I couldn't put it down. For some particular reviewers I find it a disappointment to hear them judge this book in such a cruel manner, and then attack some of the reviewers for enjoying this book. I feel that as a Pike reader you have to expected both the expected and the unexpected. But if you really wanted to read two books that are so unlike Mr. Pike's but still as beautiful and as meanful as the next try reading The Midnight Club or Sati. And I think that Mr. PIke does a great job at intertwining many themes into his stories. So if there is one thing I can say, this book is another job well done for Pike!

Summary: This Book had a strange ending
Review: When I first started reading this Magic Fire. I thought it wasahorror story about a pyromaniac, but after I read the first 100pages. I found out it was more like a sci-fi book. You may be wondering why the book is called Magic Fire, the reason being is that Mark Cahrm(the pyromaniac) can control fires with his mind. This book has a weird twist at the end. You are going to have to read the book to find out what the ending is. thereason I gave it a 4 was because of the vulgar material in it's contents.

Summary: Nothing but praise...
Review: Yes, this book was a bit confusing. But I find it nice to be challenged a little, even by a young adult novel. I thought Mr. Pike did a wonderful job of keeping his readers on their toes. I suggest this to anyone who enjoys being twisted about a bit.As I have seen written here, I am also upset by other reviewers' condemning the readers who enjoyed this book. Enjoying this type of fiction doesn't make one illiterate. I happen to like this genre because it is fast and relatively light, a good escape from the everyday. And my literacy and comprehension are at a doctoral level, according to the last test. Yes, I am an adult and also enjoy adult fiction, nonfiction, etcetera; but having read Mr. Pike since I was a child, for 12 years now, I am still a fan. I will continue to read what he produces with interest - whatever it may be.
