Sorry, I just never got into the Harry Potter books Charlie Bone took me into the very similar world filled with magic, mystery, and wonder.
I loved even more the difference between these two series which was instead of Hogwarts, these student went to a school for the "endowed". It wasn't just a school for children who showed special abilities Children of the Red King but for children who showed great talent in the arts, music, etc. Following Charlie Bone as he sets off to uncover the truth about his Father's disappearance and the very mysteries of the school, Grandma Bone, and so on, was a thrill. I have to say I am very sad this was never adapted into film.
