Books Read in 2010: The Third Sign

So I was wrong, Lightning Thief had more chapters than I thought. I finished the book The Third Sign and will finish another before Lightning Thief. Also, I recently got the second and third Fablehaven books :D

The Third Sign

The author of this book said that he took his inspiration from The Lord of The Rings. This does not mean that he copied it, though, his book is very unique and tells its own story. The book takes place in Klune, a nation that in under constant attack by evil forces, but is protected by the race of Arlics. The Arlics aren't sure that they want to continue protecting Klune though and this causes a lot of tension as the people start to fear that their borders will be left unguarded. This seems to be the least of their problems as an ancient prophecy seems to be coming to pass that could spell the destruction of the world.

I really liked this book. There aren't enough epic fantasies anymore, and this helps fill the gap. I actually enjoyed this book more than LotR, and I can't wait for the next one to come out. I totally recommend this book to all.
