The Heir to the Amulet mixes the ideas of knights and old world, medieval places with futuristic, high-tech places and blends them into a story of mystery and intrigue, kidnapping, and sabotage. Raith was successful in her attempt to take over the country of Cymnosa, but the Queen and her children managed to escape. Years later, Queen Sarah has vanished in a plan crash, and the heir, Lora, is living under a false identity in another country, while Richie is under the control of an evil uncle. When Raith makes a bid to get the remaining two nations fighting, Lora undertakes the adventure of a lifetime to save her brother, her best friend, and new friend, along with the rest of the world, in S.P. Meijer's fantasy epic adventure.
Lost heirs are a dime a dozen, but Lora is different; she is 16 but packs a powerful determination into that body to right the wrongs of the world. You like her from the beginning. Her best friend Stephen is the son of the King of Magoria, although the King doesn't quite like her. S.P. Meijer focuses on the kids; they are the heroes of the book, they are the ones who get out there and make things happen. The focus is not on the King or the Queen or any adult, although at times they help a bit, but it is mainly on a group of 16 to 10-year-old kids. That is what makes The Heir to The Amulet so good for kids to read. It gives them a sense of empowerment and encouragement, that they aren't too small, and their voice matters.
