I was expecting this one to be better than its predecessor. I was wrong. Very wrong.After getting to Foo, I thought, "Okay, now things are gonna get good, since we're done travelling to Foo." No, I was wrong. Winter gets kidnapped, and what does Leven do? Instead of going after her like a good hero should, he keeps tramping on to save Geth. Oh wait! Geth has a dark side named Ezra! He teams up with what's left of the villain from the first book! Was I worried or scared? No. I was confused. It'sI think the best part of revisiting this series after so much time is that I have forgotten so much that it is like rediscovering everything all over again. I remember vague things but mostly I'm completely caught up in the story like I was the first time I read it. Foo is awesome with it's beauty, it's possibility, it's wonder, and even the darker sides to even it out though it is sad. The characters grow and learn and new mysteries are afoot! Can't wait to delve into the next book!
I really want to like these books better than I do. The ending of this one was good--the pace picked up, there was drama and purpose, and we actually got some useful information about the big picture. But the first 3/4 of the book was tedious, too many characters, and the same kinds of plot lines over and over. I'm tired of the following: bad event happens to character, author explains ad nauseum exactly what some new object or event means in Foo, character barely escapes bad event, everything
This was good. It is neat to see a Fantasy book that is completely original. Obert Skye is an inventor, and it's worth reading to just feel the raw fun creativity. Plus, if you don't care what happens to Leven, Winter, and Tim . . . you're really missing something.
Barely got through this book and I couldn't even start on the third book...thus I didn't finish the series.
These books are a little too crazy fantasy for me... kind of like Alice in Wonderland where there are just too many weird made-up things. But I like the story and the characters. This one ends on a cliff hanger so I'm going to need to read book 3 (but because of COVID-19 I have to wait till the libraries open back up...)
Have you ever been haunted by a secret? Was it your own or someone else's? This story finds our protagonist and his friends in Foo, seeking each other and hoping fate guides their feet to the right place at the right time. Obert Skye introduces more unique creatures and characters to entertain the reader while bringing the Clover, Winter, Leven, and Geth close to either their end or another beginning. He continues to use a flair for description that can bring giggles even as he reader glances
