" Perhaps because I haven't read a book in this series for a couple of years, or perhaps because it is the last book in the series and just tried to do too much, I just didn't enjoy this one as much as I enjoyed the rest of the series. The writing was choppy and simplistic. The story was a bit scattered and erratic. However, under it all, Nimmo characters still retain much of their charm, and the world she created is still fascinating, even if it has lost some of its luster here. "
