He is the apprentice of two magicians Topolain and the dwarf Tetu. He shows this by investigating, exploring and being extremely considerate of whatever city or town he is in until “it feels like a second skin.” What’s more, Yann was born with a gift for knowing what people are thinking, and an “uncanny ability” to throw his voice. Yann Margoza has what is described as a sharp intelligent face, olive skin, a mop of jet black hair, and deep black “eyes as dark as midnight.” Yann is exceedingly solitary. The fourteen-year-old mysterious gypsy boy Yann Margoza is the main character of The Red Necklace. The Red Necklace has a very interesting main character, an intriguing setting, and a fascinating conflict. As the Kirkus review declares, it is “ lush tale of magic, betrayal, and revolution…teen readers will eat this up.” Readers will definitely eat this up it is a fabulous story of the French Revolution, and I would recommend it to anybody who enjoys a colorful cast of characters and a slowly unraveling mystery.

The novel The Red Necklace written by the author, and illustrator Sally Gardner is quite a suspenseful young adult novel.
