As Charlie is Trying to save Ollie his Uncle Paton comes back but he is hurt so Charlie tries to help him get his power to explode light to come back after his visit to Yewbeam Castle. Which is also where Charlies aunts live but some aunts live in Darkly Wynd including the shape shifter Yolonda who is the one who hurt uncle Paton. When uncle Paton felt better and got his power back he told Charlie to use Billy Raven (Talks to animals.) to talk to the blue snake (That turned Ollie invisible) and see if he could turn Ollie visible. Then when Ollie gets back to normal, visible, Charlie and his friend are happy but Yolonda makes the belt that Emma made and made it deadly. Emmas aunt tries on the belt and she couldn't take it off and she starts to die.

So when Charlie and uncle Paton kill Yolonda they go to help Emmas aunt and Charlie saves her with his wand. Then when Ollie goes back to his house and Mr.Boldova gets his memory back and the story ends.

The thing that makes this book good is that it makes you want to read on and on till you reach without stopping. But if you do stop you have a lot of questions in your head. **Big Question #2: What would make this book better?** As a critic, it’s important to be honest. And honestly, some parts of some books are pretty bad. To make this book better i think they should just stay on the main problem. Making Ollie visible but there is so much going on its hard to remember parts. The author wants you to know how the characters accomplished there problems and accomplish new problems.

 * Big Question #1: What makes this book good?  **
 * Big Question #3: What’s the one most important thing the author wants you to know?** This is the main idea. It’s almost as though you could squeeze a whole book down to a __single sentence__ and say that’s what it was all about. This

**Big Question #4: Why did the writer write this?** Why did the author bother to tell this story? What is it about this particular story that the author thought was so important? Was it just for fun or to teach something? I think this story was just for fun. I guess the author wanted to tell people what she had on her mind.

**Big Question #5: What does the audience need to know to understand and enjoy the book?** In other words, what background knowledge would be good to have prior to reading this book? I think to understand this book (the best) is to read the other books from the series before you read this one. Because this is the 3rd book but the author did describe all the characters and makes it pretty easy to understand whats going on.
