Chosen thirteen generations ago to fight an epic magical battle he can't possibly win-and he doesn't even know magic is real. When a spellcasting experiment for a school paper goes awry, Goff's destiny is engaged, and he becomes the mortal enemy of Harkland Mathers XIII, the most powerful dark wizard in centuries. Clueless and racing against time, Goff and his friends must find a way to stop Mathers from performing an ancient ritual on Halloween night that will make him invincible, or Halloween will be the last night of freedom the world ever knows.

Full of humor, excitement, unforgettable characters, and hair-raising adventure, Misfit's Magic: The Last Halloween will appeal to young readers of all ages, who, along with Goff, will find that a kind heart has its own special magic.

 - Liz Konkel for Readers' Favorite


I had a wonderful time with this story which painted an intense but charming picture of magic leaking into the otherwise ordinary life of a boy living on the outside of society looking in. Author Fred Gracely's skill as a world builder is on show right from the very beginning as he masterfully introduces the rules and norms of the magical world as it seeps into the world we know.

- K.C. Finn for Readers' Favorite


...a thoroughly engaging story that captured my attention from the first page. Goff is a character you root for throughout the book as he struggles to maintain his sense of ethics through many trials...Gracely also does a marvelous job of describing the town, from the menacing gargoyles to the autumn landscape. Misfit's Magic: The Last Halloween will delight fans of Harry Potter and Septimus Heap. It is an original tale filled with wizardry and a great coming-of-age story.

- Kristine Zimmerman for Readers' Favorite


...a great read, a fun story filled with magic and mystery...It's not just about kids fighting evil though; it's about dealing with bullying and finding a way to believe in yourself and your powers...you won't put this book down until you're done. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this...
