Once Upon a Time is a clean fantasy book. It is the third book in the series, and I very much enjoyed following the characters. I laughed out loud at the occasional humorous banter between characters. This book has many surprises. The book nicely wraps up and leaves no loose ends. I think it is my favorite in the trilogy. Makes you want to fist-bump someone. :) I hope there are more to come. I recommend it for anyone over twelve.
I think this was my favorite of the series. (I can't wait to see another... hint hint hint.) I loved the triumphant nature throughout the book, especially the ending! I would recommend this book to ANYONE who likes fiction/fantasy. It would even be good to read to children who are not exceedingly sensitive. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!!!
Sarah and I wrapped up loose ends in this book. Our mother asked us be different and not go through huge difficulties and win by the skin of their teeth, but with power and decisive victories. Did we comply? Tell us what you think.
Since many will not read this, we just wanted to give away a little secret. Watch for words and names spelled backwards throughout the series just for fun.
