Review by MetaVarsity for Emily and the Battle of the Veil

Finally, a metaphysical book for young adults! As a lover of fantasy books, I really enjoyed Emily and the Battle of the Veil, the first book in the Scroll of Seven series. This first installment introduces us to Emily, a young girl who was born under mysterious circumstances and who seems to have a special purpose in life. As the story progresses we meet her interesting physical and other worldly friends who have been drawn to Emily to support her special purpose - saving the Earth and its parallel world called Aurana. Emily is confronted by many new things, including facing her own fears and a couple of 'baddies' who plot to stop her. I loved how Karen Brooks has managed to use the story to carry a fundamental metaphysical message - "thoughts are things" and "energy follows thought". This is a great buy for parents who wish to share these principles with their young adults in a fun and approachable way. I look forward to Emily and her friends' next adventure.
