This is not my first time reading this book, but I thought I’d read the whole series again in preparation for reading the last two books—which I haven’t yet read.

I’m thick in the middle of uni work at the moment and reading some heavy stuff, which is one of the reason I think this was such a delight to read. It was nice and light, the style a touch simplistic, obviously for younger readers. It had a great sense of adventure and urgency. The characters are likable and there are some great creative touches around how the world is built.

A joy to read.
