A little girls has to save the world.
Review:
This series was not originally intended to be for children and you can see the authors level of caring decrees toward the end of the series as I imagine the pressure from his published etc increased demanding a kid friendly book .Yes the third book reads like it was written by typewriter monkeys and mot assuredly not the author who wrote the brilliance of the first. That said the first and second novels are well worth reading. The characters are strong and will stay with you. The premise is darkly wonderful and the settings are so well described you can feel the cold in your bones etc.I recommend this to everyone (at least book 1, not so much book 3)
8/10
10/10 but only if an adult is reading it out loud to the child - otherwise Grade 7 and up would be good
If you enjoyed this you should read
The Oz Series
