Too many cliches

The idea held promise, but the story fell into one trope after another. I was disappointed.

Wish the other two books were on here!

Loved it! Narrator was perfect!I remember reading this book when I was still in school and it brought back not only memories but details about the book that I thought I forgotten but it was one of my favorites back then was really looking forward to finishing this and looking for the other two books that follow but unfortunately it's still not on here yet eagerly waiting to see that they are added so I can finish those as well.

Fantastic book!

This was fantastic for the whole family, I wish the entire series were available here.

The important rose

I loved the rose and I loved how the tiger loved his apprentice.Also, I like that the rose is in disguise and it is actually the Phoenix.
