Another fun adventure with Jack and the gang, complete with new monsters, intriguing problems, and epic adventures. Fast-paced story full of battles, mystery, and jokes. Great for reluctant readers.
As with the previous books, this one is broken up with artwork incorporated into the scenes. Cool integration and art style. Really works with the story.
The stakes didn’t seem as high in this book as compared to the first two. It kind of feels like filler before the bigger adventure in the next book, but it was still fun to read and a good setup for the impending situation.
While I enjoy the books, I don’t like Jack’s character as a whole. He really grates on my nerves although at least he’s not as creepy as in the first book. It helps having more interesting characters in June, Quint, and Dirk to help balance out Jack.
On the whole, I am enjoying reading this series and look forward to the next book.
