"Fowl is back to plotting (but starting to gain a moral compass) and an action-packed adventure awaits. Almost too action-packed for me, I'm too logical, and near-death experiences left and right start to take away from their excitement. Nevertheless, these are easy reads that I fly through them. I don't need to be contemplating much while listening to this, which is relaxing and needed every once in a while. Grub does take away from the series I bit for me, he's just plain annoying. But most books have their vices.
For a middle-grade series, it hits the nail on the head. I can't wait for book three. "
