![]() ![]() It was inspiring and one of those books you can’t stop thinking about after you’ve read it. Ishmael and Luc are suddenly at severe odds and Ishmael is torn between family and his destiny. While Ishmael is there a catastrophe destroys nearly all of the color and light. The other halls are Shape, Manufactory, Motion, Sound, Scent and Gustation. He finds Luc in the Hall of Hue, one of the seven creative workshops at The Commons. Ishmael sets out to find his brother to tell him about their father and bring him back home to help their mother, but to also find answers about the colors he can see. Upon questioning his mother, she reveals that Luc didn’t disappear, he too could see the colors and followed a calling to The Commons to be a Color Keeper. His mother and sister, however, cannot see it. One morning while doing chores, a ray of light shows Ishmael a spectrum of color he never knew existed. Ishmael lives in a colorless world working on his family’s small farm, filled with grief after the disappearance of his older brother Luc, and then the tragic death of his father. Oh my goodness, where to even start with this beautiful middle grade fantasy. ![]()
