Book 3 of the Fowl Twins and conclusion to the series. This book did not disappoint. It was action packed to the end with a wonderful happy ending. Even a hint to more of a happy ending. Overall loved the series and would love to see more books set in the Artemis world. Until then…

Book 2 of Myth Adventures. Raised stakes and lots of humor keep the story in this one moving along. The series continues the adventure from the first book but by far this series is more on the lines of Terry Pratchett or Piers Anthony and wonderful light reading.
