the power of music [no spoilers] : Spellsinger : Book 2: The Hour of The Gate (The Spellsinger Saga)
"The Hour of the Gate" is the second volume in the Spellsinger adventure about Jon-Tom, summoned to another world to help fight a growing threat to the lives of all sentient animals and possibly his own world.
Back cover of book:
Invasion of the Plated Folk!
The elders of Polastrindu watched in horror as Clothahump, wizard and turtle, spun visions of the coming invasion. Finally the Plated Folk had a magic potent enough to penetrate Zaryt's Teeth and the warmlands, igniting a devastating war between the species. The wizard and his earthly helper, Jonathan Thomas Meriweather, grad student and rock guitarist, must undertake the voyage into enemy territory in search of allies against the evil hordes from beyond.
So Jon-Tom, Clothahump, Mudge the Otter, flame-haired Talea and their motley crew set sail on a suicide mission down the treacherous river that winds through the subterranean lair of Massawrath, Mother of Nightmares, across Helldrink through a tunnel of cold flame to the center of the earth.

End back cover of book.
Since the story picks up where the prior volume ended, combining the two would be welcome. The earthly education in an alien landscape fashions a fun fantasy hero of Jon-Tom. The battles and descriptions aren't deep but friendly for younger readers with some of the creatures encountered as rather creative. The characters aren't limited to unaccented English but have a range including Australian and Brooklyn, New York. Understanding a written accent can be more difficult than hearing it and the rare vulgar word (not beyond a modern schoolyard) should be noted.
As a fan of the classical, rock, and heavy metal music genres, I find the magic Jon-Tom creates with his duar exciting since I believe a well-constructed song can affect people with its intensity and power in a primal aspect.
Thank you.
