So glad this finally came out! I was so excited to get my copy! Love this series and can hardly wait for number seven.

I am really enjoying this series! I love the scene in the bar (reminiscent of the Star Wars cantina scene) and the new aspects of Prince Trellis. Looking forward to book four.

Amulet:: The Stonekeeper's Curse (book two)

by Kazu Kibuishi
PRMS hardcover 217 pages
genre: YA graphic novel fantasy

I am really enjoying this series! Not sure why it has taken me so long to read more of it. The surprising thing in this volume is that the elves are the bad guys! I didn't realize in book one that they were elves. Now I'm very curious about the elven prince and his role in the story. I love the fox character and am glad that Emily's mom is okay.

Amulet: The Stonekeeper (book one)

by Kazu Kibuishi
personal paperback 186 pages
genre: YA graphic novel, mystery & SciFi

Emily and Navin have dealt with the death of their dad and the frustration of moving to a new town, but when their mom is kidnapped by a bizarre tentacle creature in their "new" home, it's time for the kids to take charge. Emily finds an amulet which accepts her and gives her powers. A strange man with glowing tries to overpower them as they seek to rescue their mom, meet an elderly relative, and team up with some robots. I'm ready to read book two!
