The Dark Planet by Patrick Carman

5.0

Best book of the trilogy! I feel like both of the previous books were just building up to this satisfying climax. Although I usually loathe depressing post-apocalyptic fiction, I liked that this story ends on a very happy and hopeful note. Following Edgar's journey down to the Dark Planet itself, the story involves even more fantastical creatures than the last and leads us to believe that Atherton has holds more secrets than Dr. Harding ever let on. A wonderful conclusion to a fascinating tale of childhood, working together, and life-long dreams come true. Great for late middle school-high school.
