The Sea of Terror by Stuart Gibbs

skylarkochava's review against another edition

3.0

My kids (5 and 7) loved it. I did not. Just…too over the top, I guess. Not my style.

A funny and cute read with the kids. I love how it introduced them to characters from the Odyssey.

Another fun Once Upon A Tim book by Stuart Gibbs!

In this book Tim, his friends, and his group of funny, foolish and "brave" knights embark on an adventure through the sea to retrieve the queen's golden fleece—and more importantly what's inside the pocket of the fleece!

The not-so seaworthy knights, a village idiot, and a fr-dog (frog dog), must survive the many terrors in the Sea of Terror. They will encounter scary monsters, a suspicious guy named Fred, possibly the edge of the Earth and much more.

Through it all Tim must learn the meaning of being brave while equally using his head to make smart decisions.

This book is a fun and easy read for all ages. Lots of funny moments and at least one word we can all learn from the IQ Boosters!
