    <body><![CDATA[This wasn't my favorite of the Underland Chronicles so far. Mostly, I think, it just felt like a prelude to the final book. I did like that Gregor continues to think about his role as a warrior and what that really means. I also like that no clear-cut answer is reached. Peace isn't always the right ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27346306">more...</a>]]></body>

I had a hard time putting the book down and, when I did, I kept thinking about parts of the plot.  So far definitely my favorite in the series.  Gregor is finally sort of seeming grown up.

    <body><![CDATA[Another great story to a great series.  This one was slightly different than the othes, but still just great, almost.  We have a cliffhanger ending that makes you want to hurry up and start on the final book of the series.<br/><br/>War is brewing and I already have the next book, so I gotta start ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/80212280">more...</a>]]></body>
