For my full, non-spoiler review: https://christianlovingbooks.blogspot.com/2018/10/the-monster-in-hollows-review.... This book did two things it's nearly impossible for a book to do: 1) Surprised me with a plot twist 2) Almost made me cry. (Tears were brimming, my throat was tight, but I'm a heartless reader so I didn't actually cry.) The emotions in this book are fantastic and I'm both ecstatic and terrified to find out what happens next. If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times: It's ridiculously hard to read through tears. This far along in the series, I'm way past the point of being invested in this story. No longer is the world of Aerwiar a fictitious place - it has become my reality. Peterson masterfully spins his tale and expresses his characters' emotions so effectively that you can't help but get emotional yourself. This third installment of the Wingfeather Saga kind of put me through the wringer, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm kind of dreading Book 4, not because I'm scared of the feels (I'm totally scared of the feels), but because I don't want this wonderful series to end. Pertenece a las seriesContenido en

HTML:Things are about to go from bad to wolf in the howlingly entertaining third book of the Wingfeather Saga. Janner, Tink, and Leeli Igiby, the Lost Jewels of Anniera, are hiding from Gnag the Nameless in the Green Hollows, one of the few places in the land of Aerwiar not overrun by the Fangs of Dang. But there's a big problem. Janner's little brotherâ??heir to the throne of Annieraâ??has grown a tail. And gray fur. Not to mention two pointed ears and long, dangerous fangs. To the suspicious folk of the Green Hollows, he looks like a monster. But Janner knows better. His brother isn't as scary as he looks. He's perfectly harmless. Isn't he? Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, The Monster in the Hollows is a tale children of all ages will cherish, families can listen to together, and book clubs are sure to enjoy discussing for its many layers of me No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

Though there were some slower parts for me in this book, as I wasn't as interested in the school system in the Green Hollows, it was not nearly enough to detract from the rest of the book as an exciting, heart-filled addition to this series.
Looking back on it, most of what I'd want to expand on would be a spoiler, so I don't feel like I can say much in this review. However, as the danger ramps up, the heroes learn more and more who they are and who they should be. And though there were some dark and gut-wrenching moments, I have so much anticipation for the finale of this great series. More importantly, my 10-year-old daughter has gotten into this series since I started it, and she LOVES it! In fact, she's kind of obsessed with it. She's not an avid reader, so I'd say that's a huge endorsement.
I highly recommend this book, and the series so far, for folks of all ages who enjoy clean, fun fantasy adventures. And to restate from my previous reviews--you might see it labeled as Christian, and there are some references to a deity that many of the people believe in, but it is not overtly Christian.
On a technical note, I initially listened to this as an audiobook, which isn't normally my thing. It's narrated by the author, though, and he does such great voices and really makes the characters come alive. When I got a copy of the ARC, I flipped through to find all of the illustrations and extras that the re-release will have, and they are great too! Definitely worth having the physical copy when it comes out someday.
Thank you to Netgalley and WaterBrook & Multnomah for providing me a copy of this book to review. ( )
