The second book in this series, and I have to say it just was terrific! The first book was pretty fun, but this one takes the cake. :D It is done pretty much in the same way as the previous book, with illustrations, photographs, texts, and it was script-like. I am not really used to reading a book...
This final installment of “The Chronicles of Egg”, by Geoff Rodkey, brings to a climax a fantasy story of love, loss, war, humor, and a whole lot more. This was my absolute favorite book in the entire series. It brought about a strong touch of humanity and humor to a tale filled with “good guys”, “b...
New Lands, the second in The Chronicles of Egg series, continues the misadventures of Egbert & Company, trying to find the Fist of Ka before the ruthless Pembroke does. I found the story bright and vivid, imaginative and daring, without giving into a formulaic plot with predictable outcomes. The sto...
This book was so much fun! Claudia’s twin brother, Reese, embarrassed her at school in the lunch room in front of their entire class. Claudia decides she needs to humiliate Reese the same way he humiliated her. Thus begins the war: there’s some stinky fish, an embarrassing music video, crazy hair...
[spoiler] [My main beef with this, besides being practically pointless, was that Egg is so immature. I get that it's a MG book, but there is a difference between being a child and being plain childish. So as he fancies himself in love with Millicent and pines for her, when she does show up, she's no...
Since I was so very charmed by Geoff Rodkey's first installment in the Chronicles of Egg series, I couldn't wait to read New Lands! I was looking forward to more adventures, and greatly hoping that some of my questions from the last book would be answered. I was nervous as I turned the first page. ...
I'll admit that when I was first seduced by the cover of Deadweather and Sunrise. After all, it's hard not to expect adventure when there are pirates involved. Better yet, I knew that our young hero was one Egbert, a boy whose life was filled with mishap and adventure. If there is one thing I love, ...
My rating: 4 of 5 starsA copy of New Lands was provided to me by Putnam for review purposes.After being completely charmed by 'Deadweather and Sunrise' picking up 'New Lands' was a given. Comparatively, New Lands is less funny and more serious but still so full of heart. Egg and Guts set out on a jo...
2.5 stars.On the first page I thought that it reminded me of "How to Train Your Dragon", the Dreamworks movie, and The Rise and Fall of Mount Majestic by Jennifer Trafton and that vein did continue throughout the book. I laughed when I realized that there was a actual non-related "Mount Majestic" in...
