I never got around the reading this children's series when I was a child. I don't know how it slipped by me, especially since I was obsessed with The Lord of The Rings (4th grade) and The Chronicles of Narnia (5th grade). If this had been tossed to me around that time I would have adored it too.
Sadly, as an adult, I wasn't much into these books. A little too predictable for someone who saturates themselves in fantasy. It's not like Harry Potter which I loved as an adult or even the crack-like Twilight series (total young adult novel crap, but still somehow entirely engrossing--I'm ashamed to say.)
Still, this series is one I can recommend to the young fantasy novel fan in your life.
