About This Book
Charlie Bone is an ordinary boy until he became endowed. People who are endowed are descended from the Red King, a king full of magic, and had ten children. So when Charlie was discovered endowed, he was sent to Bloors Academy, which, in my opinion is miserable. As Charlie heads off to Bloors, he senses a mystery waiting for him.
