Conrad's Fate by Diana Wynne Jones

Title: Conrad's Fate

Author: Diana Wynne Jones

Date finished: 07/08/'12

Genre: Fantasy

Rating: 6*

Overview (taken from the book's blurb): Someone at Stallery Mansion is changing the world. At first, only small details, but the changes get bigger and bigger. It's up to Conrad, a twelve-year old with terrible karma who's jioned the mansion's staff, to find out who is behind it.

But he's not the only one snooping around. His fellow servant-in-training, Christopher Chant, is charming, confident, and from another world, with a mission of his own- rescuing his friend, lost in an alternate Stallery Mansion. Can they save the day before Conrad's awful fate catches up with them?

Comments: A brilliant page-turner, it makes me unable to put down the book until the last page! Although I didn't read any of the Chrestomanci series before and this is the 6th book, I have no trouble understanding it and still found it witty, smart, humorous and exciting! I recommend it to all magic lovers!
