I’m not too sure this trilogy stuck the landing. Maybe I just wasn’t in the right mood for it, but I found the book slow and fairly boring. The emotional beats didn’t hit for me and I was just glad to be done with it.

Phil Tucker just knows how to write entertaining stories! There’s nothing too complex happening here just yet, but it’s fun and engaging while adding some unique spins on what could easily be a very tired concept. Hoping this continues to be a fun ride!

Just a good, solid entry in what continues to be a fun series. There’s not much more to this than “numbers go up and people get stronger”, but it’s done in such a way that it doesn’t need to be more than that.

It's so refreshing to have a series in this genre just come to a conclusion without dragging it out. While neither this entry nor the series as a whole is perfect, it's very fun and tells a nice, complete story. Definitely worth picking up if you enjoy the genre and are looking for something to get you by until new releases.

Such a fun, little novella! Having it be in this format definitely helped as the author didn't have to worry about providing too much back story or explanations, just pure plot. Can be knocked out in a night very easily and will have you engaged in the characters and story the whole way.

There is just so much happening in this entry in the series. Definitely the best in the series so far though it's not going to win any literary awards. Very fun though!

The world is really expanding in this one and it continues to be a fun and engaging read. Will be very curious to see how it all shakes out.

It’s hard to write reviews for the individual books in a series like this when you’re really just binging them. Again, very fun, easy read with dinosaurs. There’s far better books out there, but this is a great pick for a palate cleanser.

Definitely an interesting read filled with a lot of information I wasn't aware of as it feels like a pretty forgotten time in history. I just wish the overall story was told in a more engaging manner. Still a very quick, easy read that you can knock out in an evening.

Building off the previous book in the series, this continues to be a fun read. It doesn’t get too bogged down in stats while introducing some interesting plot elements.

There are times where the prose in this book is really good, but then the author can't help but go off on a tangent and wander around within his own brain. Just overall I really did not enjoy reading this.

Fun start to a new series. It isn’t special or groundbreaking, but it’s fast paced and has dinosaurs. What more can you really ask for?

I mean thank goodness we're finally out of Nevermore. The last couple books have been ridiculous and I'm sincerely hoping this means the series as a whole will get itself back on track and we'll see some meaningful progress of storylines.

Another solid entry in this series. I'm really excited that we're starting to get into the end game and looking forward to how all of this closes out. Hopefully it won't be too many more books.

The concept of this book was great, but I had some issues with the execution. Mainly, I just didn't care for the main character and that left me annoyed at the book far too many times. Still an enjoyable read, but I wish I had liked it more than I did.

Interesing but not engaging is what continues to come to mind for me when describing this book. I can't say I would necessarily recommend it wholesale, but it's not a bad book by any means. Just has some pacing issues and really needed something to tie it all together.

I'm still not that impressed with Zachary Quinto's narration, but I did enjoy the story. I expect it's going to seem very dated eventually though with all of its Covid references. Glad I finished out the series at least.

Pretty good entry in the series though some of the power creep was very noticeable in this one and it didn't feel quite as earned as in the previous ones. Still overall an engaging story that was fun to read.

Very solid entry in the series. While there wasn’t a ton that actually happened, it’s a quick read and a good setup for what seems like will be the final entry in the series.

This was a solid entry in the series. A lot of good progress is made and it never feels like things are happening solely to stretch out the plot unlike other series in the genre. Excited to continue seeing where this series goes.

Much like the first one in this series, this is just a nice, short listen. I'm less sold on Zachary Quinto as the narrator though. There just wasn't a lot of depth to his performance and everyone just sorta sounded like Zachary Quinto.

Not the best entry in the series so far, but it’s cool to see some actual stuff happening that isn’t just training and delving. Feel like that’s a really hard balance to strike in this genre.

Parts of this book really worked for me and parts were a bit of a slog. As it's practically a short story, the slog was at least over very quickly. The underlying mystery of what's going on in Area X was definitely intriguing and the author did a great job of building suspense and tension throughout, but I largely came away wanting more. Just not quite enough to continue reading more of the series.

Pretty fun follow up to what seems like is going to be a really engaging series! While the focus of the story wasn’t exactly where I’d like to be, the additional world building was done really well. Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

I would read anything in the Fablehaven universe and while this wasn't my favorite of those books, it still scratched a deep itch in my brain. Well worth it if you too have fond memories of the series.
