Firewing (Aladdin Fantasy)
Kenneth Oppel
Aladdin, 2004
A Terrifically Planned Book
+ Firewing
+ A review coming from a Silverwing fanatic!
Kenneth Oppel's book is superbly planned out, and that can be seen by the way he piles every event like bricks on a wall.
It is a great read as well, and as soon as you start you can't put it down until the end. If you haven't read the first two books, though, this could be quite the challenge ...

Starscape, 2002
Listen to a well crafted story
+ Bean Rocks!
+ Bean Better Than Ender??? Possibly
For me there is nothing better than listening to a book on CD while chewing up a lot of asphalt during a road trip. I discovered this little gem 'Ender's Shadow, at the local library and became an addict to Ender, Bean, and the Shadow series as a result. For those of you that think you have to read ...

Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo (Leven Thumps)
Obert Skye
Aladdin, 2006
Can't Wait To Explore Foo
+ Fresh new fantasy
+ Wonderful Series
These days I find it easier and easier to sink into a fantasy novel written for juvenile readers. I don't know if it's the worlds I enjoy, or if it's the break from "adult" problems and issues.
