A John Zakour Fan Reviews Illusia I have read all of John Zakour's books and been a fan of his comic strip Working Daze as long as he has been writing it. I enjoy the irreverent banter he assigns to his characters. Illusia, being a "kid's" book was a bit different than his others but the feel of the book is the same - rollingly iconoclastic. I found the charaacters to be both believable and appealing. The story line was predictable but engaging. The story twists and puns were reminiscent of Piers Anthony and I liked that. Well done, John.
