 Jason is your average teenage boy until one day he discovers powers within himself, powers he's never known before. He is a great, but rare breed - a warrior heir. But when Jason is introduced to the harsh reality of his centuries old duty in a tournament between the two great warriors of every generation, he questions what he was really made for.

 Just finished the series today (read all three in 3 days). Really fun! I'm not a huge Harry Potter fan, I've read them all, but probably wouldn't run out to read them again. These I could read repeatedly.

 I thought this would be a really good book. It turned out to be pretty mediocre. I noticed there was a lot of author telling the readers what happened rather than showing.

 This was an awesome book that I literally could not put down until i finished!! I didn't sleep for two days until I finished it and I so glad I did!! It has a twist that I didn't expect and I can't believe how many wizards and spell casters have been so close to him for his entire life!! Crazy stuff.

 Good easy read. Fun, and an interesting premise. A bit predictable, but delivered a good climax.

 This book starts off really slow, but after a few chapters it picks up and hooked me. There are a few twists I didn't see coming that made it awesome. I would definitely pick it up if your into the genre. Just don't drop it if the first couple of chapters lose you.

 At first I was hesitant about reading this book, but I found that I couldn't stop reading it! When Jack Swift forgets to take his heart medicine one day, he discovers that his medicine has been suppressing supernatural powers. However, he learns that he is a warrior destined to fight to the death in a dangerous game between the White and Red Roses. And each side is trying to get him first, because he is one of the last warriors alive.

 This book is so good. I could not let this book down. Or let it out of my sight that is how good it is. It has alot of fantasy, and action, and just a little romance. But not alot. I would recomend this to any one, of all ages.

 This book was okay, I guess. They make Jack look like a wuss, and he never really does anything. The only thing that made this book any good to me was the plot twists. They made them really good, though, and that's why the book was interesting.

 I must admit I picked up this book on a whim. I'd never heard of the author, but the cover looked interesting. It turned out to be one of the best books I'd ever read. When I finished, I ACHED for more. In my opinion, this book as the ability to be an EPIC story. I felt like I'd finished the prologue for The Iliad or something. And I immediately book the second book. It's hard to get through for a little bit, but I HIGHLY recommend it.

 Jack enjoys his normal life in Trinity, Ohio. He spends time with his best friends, goes to school, and is extremely excited about soccer tryouts. Jack is very healthy, despite the thick scar that resides above his heart and the medicine he has to take every day. Life is ordinary - until he forgets to take his medicine.

Soccer tryouts are a breeze. Jack has never felt so alive, and when his nemesis, Lobeck, gets in his way, Jack slams him into the goal - without touching him. Jack doesn't realize he is Weirlind, part of an underground society of magical people, and when he sent Lobeck flying into the soccer net, the magic he released acted as a signal to others around him.

Jack, destined to be a wizard but born without his stone, was saved by a leader of the White Rose. The moment Jack's life was saved, his destiny changed. Now, with a warrior stone behind his heart, he is meant to fight for the White Rose in a magical tournament - if he survives until his magic fully manifests.

Jack is one of the last warriors and both the Red and the White houses want him to fight for them. Whichever house wins the fight-to-the-death tournament has the power to control the magical community.

In a world full of wizards, warriors, seers, sorcerers, and enchanters, Jack doesn't know who to trust. Nothing around him is as it seemed.

THE WARRIOR HEIR is the first in a trilogy by Cinda Williams Chima. The story contains many lovable characters, including Jack's two Anaweir (non-magical) best friends. Even though Fitch and Will don't have magical powers, they find a way to be instrumental in Jack's struggle for survival.

THE WARRIOR HEIR is a delightful fantasy. You'll definitely want to read the next two in the series, THE WIZARD HEIR and THE DRAGON HEIR.
