 This was a fun and nostalgic adventure. Honestly, I'm a little bias because I watched the movie a few months ago because of Robert Sheehan and loved the world and the characters so much that I wanted to read more about them, and also because they never made the other movies I wanted to know how the story continues. So... I loved Tom. And Hester.
Katherine was cute, and her ending hurt, I wasn't expecting it. And also Dog, my god, that was sad, poor thing, he deserved better.


The plot wasn't a big thing for me, but I still enjoyed, but honestly what I enjoyed the most was the ride, the adventure, the traveling and knowing how different parts of the world adapted. I eager to keep going with the series. It's a nice break from adult epic fantasy and sci-fi.
