An Un-Calibrated Centrifuge
An Un-Calibrated Centrifuge rated it 8 years ago
This is a series that I really enjoyed as a kid. But like The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants series I think it has served its purpose in my life. Yes, I'll probably revisit the series again, but it just doesn't have the same magic I remember from before. Dealing with Dragons comes the closest. P...

I completely forgot about this book. Seriously, when I started reading it I couldn't remember a single thing other than I had an immediate need to read book 4 after finishing this one. Definitely feels like the weakest in the series and reading Wrede's introduction (after I reread the book) I wasn...

One of the copies of this series I'm reading has an introduction. Don't read the introductions if you haven't read the series before. They're full of spoilers. I clearly don't remember this series very well because I couldn't even remember the narrator of this book. But it holds up to rereading wi...

I distinctly remember buying this book at the same time I bought The Bad Beginning. I never finished A Series of Unfortunate Events, but I read all of the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. I really want the nine-year-old to read them. I think she'd enjoy the series. I think of this series as fantasy fo...

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I know the bare minimum about the Star Wars universe. It's something I've always been interested in, but the whole timeline of things really throws me off so I've never really been able to fully get into it. This book was very well written. Good descriptions ...

Daystar is living as perfectly normal of a life as someone can while living on the edge of the Enchanted Forest until a wizard visits his mother and gets melted. With no explanation, his mother than hands him a sword and pushes him into the forest and tells him to figure it out. It doesn't take him ...

'The Enchanted Forest Chronicles' were getting along just fine, an initial novel, 'Talking to Dragons', was followed up with a prequel trilogy so Wrede could expand on her world and its sensible fairy tale logic - the absence of which used to define children's fantasy stories.In this, the last book ...

In the second installment of 'The Enchanted Forest Chronicle' (written third (details)) the young King of the Enchanted Forest, Mendenbar, has discovered something suspicious in his kingdom, and, suspecting the Wizards, must discuss it with the King of Dragons. The problem is, Kazul has gone missing...

Patricia C. Wrede is such an incredible writer. This is a short story collection that involves some of the characters from her Enchanted Forest series and I absolutely love her sense of humor. Her characters are interesting to the point you want to learn more about them. Each story in this collectio...
