* I got this book for review and would give this book 3.5 stars for review*

I thought this was an enjoyable second book in this series. I really did enjoy the new storyline and the plot of this book was super engaging. I also liked the new characters that we met and the new dragon that was the focus of this novel. I really did enjoy the focus on the new characters that we met in this novel. I did miss the characters that were the focus in book one, but the book was still enjoyable. I really did like how this book went to new "world" and i also did like the relationship dynamics between sophie and Stu! I am hoping we get another adventure in this world soon!

This book is about Merlin's 13-year-old apprentice turning the Holy Grail into a baby dragon and the time traveling kids who go on a quest to turn said dragon back into a cup, which includes: getting Merlin from his spring break in Las Vegas, and a detour to Fairyland. Oh, and the dragon's name is Spike.

I love this book so much.

[I received an electronic review copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.]

I got a kick out of the first book in this series, so I was extra excited to be offered the chance to read an early copy of book 2. There are some great additions in this book that expand the themes of family and friendship. The fantasy elements are terrific - the interactions with Spike are great! And there are a few questions left unanswered. But no fear, there's sure to be a third book in the future. Fun addition to any home or classroom library and a great read for fantasy fans.

Engaging, fun, banter-heavy and possessed of stakes much bigger than pepperoni pizza, this second installment ofnthe Camelot Code proves as entertaining as the first. Doesn't pack quite same depth of myth, but is still a solid grounding in several simultaneous overalpping versions.
