This has always been one of my favorite series. Brandon Mull is incredibly imaginative. I categorize this book under "Quest" type books. These books (like the fourth Harry Potter) feature the protagonist trying compete a goal or get an item and along the way they must solve crazy puzzles and figure put how to outsmart traps. Mull has a real gift for writing these scenarios. I would highly recommend this book for boys and girls of any age. O.k seriously boring. To be honest the last 3 books held some interest but I had to force myself to finish these books. The truth is even though these books have a lot of potential it had to much unnecessary info. It drags along making a person feel that one would slit your own wrists in exchange for getting to the point. I don't recommend this series to anyone who has a brain. It was predictable and such a slow read. Please find something beter to read.
I could not put this series down! I may be an adult but this is by far my favorite series to date.
