Over 1000 people have reviewed this amazing book by James Patterson. __Witch and Wizard: The Gift__ , is an action packed book that’s perfect for action readers. I recommend it because of its action and bits of mystery. In addition there is a small love story that might just go wrong.  The book is about two kids, a witch and a wizard, that have to save the world from the New Order. They main goal is to save their parents and the remaining kids in the world that haven’t been captured by the New Order. The N.O. (New Order) have been bombing a place called Freeland where the kids are hiding from them. The thing about the plot that makes this book a must read is that, if the witch and wizard don’t save the kids from the N.O., the world will be in a rotten, terrible place. They have to lead a resistance made up of uncaptured kids from Freeland to defeat the N.O. The witch and wizard are the only hope for the salvation of the world and their friends.  The two main characters are Whit and Wisty Allgood, they are the witch and wizard. Whit is an 18 year old boy who was the Star quarter back for his high school football team, he was a star athlete for many other sports too. He had a girlfriend named Celia that was executed by the N.O.,in addition to her absence, her ghost still talks to Whit. Wisty is a 15 year old girl that was the person who never really cared about anything that she did. She always got in trouble in school but now has to deal with the resistance of Freeland. Both characters have magical powers and something called a gift, I can’t tell you what that is because I haven’t finished the book yet. I like these characters because they never give up and keep on pushing forward.  The setting of this book takes place in a bombed out city that used to be Whit and Wisty’s home. They now live in a once popular store called Garfunkel’s, at the same time they have to relocate their hideout because the N.O. has destroyed it. I think that the theme of this book is that you just have to keep on trying no matter what happens. Due to the loss of their home, Whit and Wisty turn themselves in to the N.O. to save their fellow friends. Nothing goes right in this book, even if something does there is always a catch. In other words, everything that seems to go right ends up going wrong. I think people should read this book because it is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. It has many action parts in it and many parts that seemed to be just perfect for the book. There is definitely enough skirmishes in the book to keep you from putting it down until you finish the book.
