The Fourth Stall Part III by Chris Rylander
4.0
The Fourth Stall series comes to a conclusion by getting back to its roots somewhat. At the very least, it's better than Godfather III, right?
Regardless, our two main characters are out of the schoolyard crime business, and not a moment too soon given the short leash they're on. Unfortunately for them, there's a new kid in town who's trying to cut into their old business, and it's not going to go well for them unless they help their former bully nemesis and put a stop to it once and for all.
While most series titles tend to go a little stale, the good news is that this entry in the Stall series basically stays on track. Focusing more on what made the first book so good definitely helps, and it's still laugh-out-loud funny in all the right places. Plus, as a good book for boys, it's easier to look past its occasional faults.
I'm glad this is a series I got going on. I won the first book on Goodreads a few years ago, and I'm glad that it's kept up. I'm looking forward to what Rylander does next.
