A review by ceruleanjen
The Key to the Indian by James Watling, Lynne Reid Banks
4.0
In the beginning, I wasn’t sure this book was necessary. The first book will always be the best to me, though I do enjoy some of the other books. In this one, Omri’s dad knows the secret and Little Bear’s clan is in extreme danger. A good hunk of the book is Omri and his dad trying to figure out how to help Little Bear. I found the first 40% to be a bit slow but ended up enjoying the other 60% more than I expected.
I feel this one ended the series on a good note. Patrick is a complete menace, though, and I’m a little stunned at this point that he was allowed to do anything. It was nice to see Little Bear, Bright Stars, Boone, and Ruby again. More of the “magic” in Omri’s family is revealed. Clan Mother was a nice edition.
I also liked the twist with Omri’s mother. Overall, this was a decent way to end the series and I’m glad I read them.
3.5 stars.
