It's like Inception and Harry Potter invited a Choose Your Own Adventure book for a sleepover. I'm not completely sold on this series, mostly because it makes the reader do all the imaginative work.

I’m still really excited about this series, as it gains its legs and prepares to jump forward. The characters are starting to become more real, and the underlying story of the entire series is beginning to show. In this volume, we learn more about the cabal of the Unwritten and how they have had t...
