4.0

This is the first book in the series since the start of the original "Fablehaven" that is really even comes close to a 4-star (as opposed to 5). Things just feel a touch more slapdash and less streamlined; there are multiple little moments and scenes happening that, while interesting and still creative, just don't mesh together as fluidly as the other books. It almost feels like there are parts that are one-shot scenes Mull wrote while coming up with ideas that somehow made the final cut.
However, I still ATE. IT. UP. Like, I've read this book before and I knew what happens, but I was still enchanted by what was happening. Mull just comes up with the most unique and outlandish things that each time I'm impressed by the plot points, characters, creatures, and little magical delights.
ALSO THAT CLIFFHANGER GETS ME EACH TIME!!!!!

Such an exciting adventure that picks up right where the first book ended and leaves you with a cliff hanger. While there is always the wish that more time would be given to old and familiar characters, Mull introduces some new and interesting ones as well. Having read the Fablehaven series is kind of a must if you want to understand this one as well. Mull once again delivers a creative and imaginative world full of interesting characters and fascinating magical creatures.

GAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why?!?!
*more crazed screaming*


THAT CLIFFHANGER SHOULD BE ILLEGAL!
I know you guys are gonna roll your eyes when I say it really IS worse than Anabeth in Taurtus.........

BUT IT IS!

No joke. I can’t even properly review this book because
....
No. Telling you would be almost more awful the cliffhanger. I know. Hard to believe.

All I can say is that Mr Mull had better fix this ASAP!
I’m a puddle....

Just leave me....
