All pages of text are present, but they may include extensive notes and highlighting or be heavily stained. Includes reading copy only books.
Ted, Laura, Ruth, Patrick, and Ellen return to the Secret Country to sort out the mess they left behind--not least of which is their confession to being impostors of the royal children and mages everyone thought they were. Despite the fact that there are five kids, they are all distinct from each other (not to mention from their newly acquired roles), and they all have the chance to voice conflicting opinions and viewpoints. Action sequences are few and far between -- Dean seems more interested in expounding philosophy and emotion in well-turned, yet highly layered, phrases. Despite that, it's a fascinating story, and now that we're all on the third book, most confusing things are explained and it's fun to see how everything will play out. My only real complaint about this book stands from the first two: the character's conversations are often too elliptical to be enlightening for the reader. She explains without really explaining -- but she does manage to quote James Thurber, which is quite an unexpected treat. Loose ends get wrapped up and this reader was finally satisfied.
