I received the ARC from NetGalley.

I have always wanted to read this series but never got around to it. Then I saw Vol 6 on Netgalley and decided it was time. So I started Friday and read every spare moment I had. It is Sunday night and I have just finished Vol 6. I am blown away. There are elements that remind me of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Chronicles of Narnia, Howl's Moving Castle and other fantasy/scifi that I've read before but it is still a fun ride. And seeing as how the intended audience is grades 3-7, it is very appropriate. New characters are introduced in every book and the action just keeps building, as well as the suspense. Half of this ARC was in black and white but the pages that were finished and colored were beautiful. The 2 page spreads are pieces of art. I am anxiously waiting for Vol 7!

Third book finished for Dewey's 24-Hour Read-a-Thon April 2015.

As seen on Caity Reads.

This is an amazing series and I’ve loved it since the beginning. I cannot wait till the seventh book. This is an epic adventure full of different characters and a lot darker than one would expect. The art is beautiful and I eat it up every time I open one of these graphic novels. I was happy to discover this is not the final book in the series and that there will be a seventh book. We’ve gotten some answers in the last couple of volumes, but even more questions and I can’t wait to read more.

This story is definitely ramping up now and I really like that we are getting a chance to see the siblings come into their own confidence and courage as they make their own journeys.
