    The Wingfeather Saga is a great series and probably one of the best book trilogies I’ve ever read. The constant danger and adventure makes the story exciting and interesting. Seriously, I was on the edge of my couch cushion! Btw I am rating the entire series when I say this, not just this part of the entire saga. My favorite character is definitely Tink. I mean, he’s a little wolf boy it’s too hard to resist him. Also in the third book, when he got caught in the cage I cried. ANDREW PETERSON, YOU ARE A GENIUS. THANK YOU FOR THIS EPIC SERIES! ALSO, LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT SEASON OF THE SHOW!!

    Me and my family were loving it but then we thought someone died. Mom looked it up to discover they didn’t really die, but a bunch of other people die later. This includes *Spoiler alert* Janer at the very end.
  • Excellent book

    Soooo my friend has got me hooked on this series, and I will never stop reading these books. I have read three and am half way through the fourth ina period of four months since receiving this first one. May have a deceiving title, but this book is heart warming, hooking, Christian, and beautiful, there is never any references of God, but the entire world these kids live in does have a “Maker” so to speak who created the entire planet with many god-like forms that are put down as fake. Very mysterious and twisting. So many twists. I usually see them coming but never have once while reading any of these books. SOO GOOD.
