Barclay Thorne is an apprentice to a mushroom farmer ahe he is happy to be there. One day while out looking for specific mushrooms he ends up entering the Wilderwood Forest, which is a no-no. In that forest is magic or Lore. He encounters a girl, Viola, who is trying to capture a beast to make it hers, but it ends up "marking" Barclay. Because magic is forbidden in his town, he ends up running away to find out how to remove the mark. Viola helps him get to a Lore town in the middle of the Wilderwood and once there in order to remove his mark he must participate in a competition to find a Loremaker to be an apprentice to.
Reminiscent of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, this is a fantasy book that has a slow start, but definitely has some fast paced action in parts.
