"Should I read the last book in the amazing trilogy by Adam Rex?" You may ask. Well ... let's see. YES! And not just because if you start a series it's always a good idea to finish it. ;)
The book finished up the series in an amazing way. It includes more dramatic scenes, more dragon and fire breathing finch-dragon, more cereal, and more of your favorite characters. Also, new! Introducing (kinda ...) another amazing character who cracks me up.
People say that there seems to be a little much going on (throughout basically all the books) and I suppose that could be true for some people. I loved it though, it just added on to the crazy awesomeness of the whole thing! There are a bunch of characters, and several viewpoints that switch around. I kept track of it all pretty well, though I can't say anything for other people. I think it jumps pretty quickly into the story, which was nice for me, because I read this right after the second and didn't have to read through 40 pages of summing up what I just read about, but that may tend to be confusing for those who haven't read either of the other two books in a while, so I recommend at least a skim of the other two before you get to this one.
Overall it's pretty awesome, and a perfect finish to the trilogy. :D

I totally dug this weirdo trilogy. I read some reviews saying that there was too much going on and it was kind of hard to follow, which I think is probably true but I think my brain was happy to keep going through and didn't bother getting hung up on all the details of time travel and magical Macguffins. I could see it being frustrating for more detail-oriented fantasy readers.
But it's SO FUNNY though.

If nothing else, thank you, Adam Rex, for inventing a reason for the subject heading: Cereals, Prepared — Juvenile Fiction.
This is a great ending to a great series. It continues to be funny, fast-paced and not in the least bit vapid, which one might expect, given the title. Deeeelightful.

This weird, weird series, you guys. I loved it. It's as weird as Hitchhiker's Guide, and as funny. How even to describe it? Several children, an accountant, a movie star famous for punching the Queen of England, a leprechaun, an invisible rabbit man named Harvey, and possible Big Foot or possible just large hairy guy take on an evil cereal company to save the world. That is either the kind of story that speaks to you, or it isn't, and there's nothing I can say to change you either way. If it DOES speak to you, please get in touch. It's lonely here on weirdo island, but we have the best books!
