Total: 3.7 = 4 stars
For some reason I could not make myself pay attention at the end of this book and then I realized when going to tally the numbers that I could barely remember anything that happened… So I think this one of the series was a dud for me. I’m giving it 4 stars sort of out of habit, because I don’t remember anything being bad in it. Just not memorable.

This book starts off quite different than the rest of the series. Gregor's mother remains below the Earth, Gregor is allowed to freely visit the Underland, and his amazing neighbor finally knows the secret. The book continues to be vastly different than the previous three, but it is a difference that was needed. This change makes you realize how similar and yet somehow free the previous tales were. This novel is heavy with future and pressure. Gregor shoulders it well.
The book centers around the mice from book 3 bringing back the crown they were told to use in emergencies. The crew must travel to find what's been happening in the Underland. The biggest difference is that this all must happen in secret, and there's no prophecy they are chasing this time.
The book leaves you hanging, so you may want the 5th one ready to go.
4 stars and highly recommended series for your kiddos in 3-5th grades (or higher).
