Tuhle série miluji od prvního dílu. Na klasických pohádkách jako Popelka, Šípková Růženka, Karkulka a další jsem vyrostla. V tomto díle se to rozrostlo o další literární příběhy, které mám moc ráda.
Spojit pohádkový svět s Ozem, Petrem Panem a dalšími klasiky, to je prostě paráda. Bylo to zábavné, zajímavé. I když jsou to už existující knihy, stejně to působilo originálně.
Je to takový díl připravující půdu, nedočkali jsme se žádného vyvrcholení příběhu na konci ale spíš pěkného cliffhangeru

I've enjoyed the last few stories in this series. Unfortunately this one seemed a little rushed. There was a lot of telling not showing and a lot of stating the obvious (Lester and Red in a tornado, Lester grabs a bunch of red fabric which you automatically know is Red but then you're told it's Red. One example of many.)
Colfer, much as I love him, also uses an excessive amount of italics - it's distracting. I've said it before and I'll say it again - if a reader notices you're doing something, you're already doing it too much. There seemed to be italics on every page. Colfer should write it in a way that we get how it's said rather than lazily relying on italics. I know he's a busy man and people are hanging for the books but he needs to do a couple of drafts before it goes to the publisher or read other writers to improve.
I did love the growth in Red's character.
Picking aside, I & my sons enjoyed the story overall and look forward to the next instalment - possibly more because I'm a Colfer fan than actually hanging out to know what happens.

Not best Chris Colfer book I’ve read but very, very good.
I decided on a whim to reread this entire series and it’s taken me a week to read up until this book and I was enjoying myself. However, I’m starting to slow down and I might not read the last two. This makes sense since I’m now in college, but what worked for 9 year old me isn’t entirely working for 19 year old me and that’s okay. I still love this series so much and feel thankful for it and it’s truly magical and fun and had many lovable characters, but I’ve realized it’s a fun chapter to close on my life and to read more mature things. Still so thankful for this series❤️
Another great book in this saga. Love the cross over between classic stories!
These books just keep getting better. So glad I bought the box set.
