The Seven Songs of Merlin by T. A. Barron

Who would like this book? Anybody who is in for reading about humility and what we do to rectify something we caused. And meeting lost siblings. And also about loss, and trying to get back what we lost. Anybody who likes these things will like this book, because this book is all about a boy’s journey to fix something he did wrong, and the lessons he learns along the way.
Why? Merlin has brought his mother to Fincayra (which you aren’t supposed to do) and she is cursed with death. Merlin goes on a journey to save her, and correct his mistake. He meets some interesting people along the way like Bumbelwy, learns some lessons, and ultimately becomes a better person. You will have to read the book to find out more.
