Not nearly as good as the first two. Oh well.
Miss Smith and Sam are still great, well, horrible actually, but they're supposed to be.
And I liked the Imp.

That's about it.
Just read this one once and then go back to the first two. They're much more worth re-reading.

Eeek, it shouldn't have taken me two weeks to read this; I should've been able to blitz through it in a weekend. But unfortunately, I found it a little tedious and the plot of Sam and the Witch to kill the children and then the whole woodland creature community so convoluted and ridiculous that I had to force myself to finish. The first book in the trilogy remains magical; the second and third, not so much.
