Prince Caspian by C.S. Lewis. I'll give it a 9/10. I like how Lucy and Edmund are handled, as well as the many creatures, particularly Reepicheep and his mice. The story has a poetic feeling to it, of a golden age lost, and reawakening that old magic, seeing it dance again.

The Sound of Creation by Gabriella Zielke. I rate it 3 out of 5 stars because I found the storyline complex. But that's only on a personal level experience.

The last book I read was E M P Honeymoon, by Dorothy May Mercer. I gave it 3 out of five stars, it was a very well-investigated novel but at some points a little boring.

The last book I read was Terms of Service by Craig W. Stanfill and I gave the book a 4 out of 5 rating. It's really interesting and I recommend others to read it, it's just pretty confusing and weird.

I just finished the Zodiac Wolves series by Elizabeth Briggs. The fourth book was recently released on kindle unlimited, and she's beginning the fifth as well. They were light, and great for my commute every day. :D

The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis. I'll give this a 9.5/10. It probably has the most humor of any book in the series, mainly with the characters of Eustace, Reepicheep, and the Dufflepuds, although there is plenty of substance as well. The episodic nature means it almost feels like a collection of short stories, one that gives new flavors to the franchise.

Fun, fast-paced reading for those who love urban fantasy.
The last book I read was Ava Flips by Ava Nebel and it was grace with a 5 out of 5 stars. I was impressed by the 7-year-old Ava Nebel.

The Devil Pulls The Strings by J. W. Zarek

I like supernatural/fantasy books, but this is one of the best lighthearted books I have read in a long time.
It's only my second review, and I did not hesitate to give it 5 stars.

My favourite authors are Terry Pratchett and David Eddings. In a rather similar vein, I feel J. W. Zarek has the beginnings of a great series here.
