From the author note at the end, it sounds like he is going to be writing a spin off series, but maybe that's just my brain really wanting him to.
I'm reading it right now.. although my final for my college class is getting in the way. I haven't gotten past the first chapter but I'm already loving it.
I've already read Gulliver's Travels - what a bear. I'm currently working through Wondrous Strange, The Battle of the Labyrinth, and Royal Affairs A Lusty Romp Through the Extramarital Adventures That Rocked the British Monarchy.
I'm planning on reading the following this month:
Lament The Faerie Queen's Deception
Alis
Secrets of the Tudor Court The Pleasure Palace
Eon Dragoneye Reborn
The Last Olympian
At least these... we'll see what else I get through on my to-read list. Especially since classes are over after next week.
Welcome Amy! I'm a middle school library so I have the same excuse for my fiance.
I've read all three so far and have really enjoyed them.
Love this series!
Haven't yet read any of the ones I said I would. I have, however, read:The Amaranth Enchantment and am reading currently:
Fragile Eternity, May Bird and the Ever After Book One, and I Capture the Castle.
Three more I may read this month (besides those listed earlier):
Bones of Faerie
Standard Hero Behavior
Daughter of the Flames
So far this month I've read: The New Policeman, Storm Glass, Wintersmith A Discworld Novel, City of Glass, The Wright 3, The Sword Thief, Selkie Girl, Fablehaven Secrets of the Dragon Sanctuary, and Artemis Fowl The Time Paradox.Wowzers! That's cause of Spring break mostly. This is what I'm hoping to also read this month:
Lament The Faerie Queen's Deception
Alis
I Capture the Castle
Close Kin
In the Coils of the Snake
Maybe more... we'll see.
Haven't gotten there yet.. haha. I didn't manage any on the list except Shooting the Moon.

I loved the first three and I have the fourth waiting for me on hold at the library. They're really great fantasy books.
Oh that's sad! I'm actually an aide right now finishing my library endorsement and there are a ton of jobs open in my area.. of course there are also a lot of jobs being cut too.. so I may have some big competition.
Ooh thanks! I just read that book too! Loved it!
Here are a few I want to read this month (that I haven't already!)Bones of Faerie
Wondrous Strange
Shooting the Moon
City of Glass
Hi! My name is Kristen and I currently work in a school library in a building that has 5th and 6th graders. I love YA books, some that I don't think are appropriate for my 5th and 6th graders.. so I end up frequenting my public library for more YA fixes. I love fantasy the most in the YA series but will pick up mostly anything if it is strongly recommended. I don't think I'll ever stop reading YA books - even if I didn't work in a school library.
