I think this is even better than the first book?!

Honestly, I love Podkin so much. The story is told like a true campfire story. So beautifully decribed that I could see the pictures so clearly in my mind. I know these are rated "childrens books" but I feel that any adult would enjoy these ❤

Das war wieder sehr süß! Für eine der Figuren hätte ich mir einen anderen Weg gewünscht, aber man kann nicht alles haben. Umso spannender, was aus dieser Figur werden wird!

I'm LOVING The Five Realms book series!

It's the perfect mix of action, adventure and a heartfelt story about friendship and family. It's so engaging.

I went from fearing for our characters' lives to giggling about how silly Podkin is, to frustration about how whiney he sometimes can be.

I find it so great to see how much these characters care for each other and look out for one another, despite their differences. After all, that's what family is all about!

A well deserved five stars! I wish I could give it even more. Definitely one of my favourite series of 2018, maybe even ever!
