I've decided to read The Secrets of Droon series entirely for Christmas since i've been feeling a bit nostalgic. I want to be able to live a bit of the magic of being a kid and what beeter to help than this incredible series. I know that this series is for young kids but i feel it will still be great after all these years.
A fun adventure with some new interesting characters. The kids are trying to get Galen and Eric back while trying to stop Gethwing and his army. It seems almost impossible but little by little they are accomplishing what they need. It is a good book continuing the plot of the recent adventures but it doesn't feel like the series is ending even though it sadly is.
