Product Description
Fone and Smiley Bone strike out into the wilderness to return a lost rat creature cub to the mountains. It doesn't take long before they run smack into Rock Jaw, "Master of the Eastern Border," an enormous mountain lion with a none-too-friendly disposition. Life gets even more complicated when they befriend a group of baby animals who are being orphaned by rat creature attacks. Everything comes to a head in an earth-shattering clash between Rock Jaw and Kingdok, the leader of the rat creatures.

Time For a Side Story and Two New Characters,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bone #5: Rock Jaw: Master of the Eastern Border (Paperback)
Reason for Reading: next in the series.Time for a change of pace as this book focuses on Fone Bone and Smiley Bone as they go up into the mountains to release the baby rat creature cub that they found in the previous volume. Smiley has become attached to him and named him Bartelby. They meet lots of new & a few old characters and the two stupid rat creatures continue to try and catch them, Roque Ja takes them hostage and the young possums find their trail once again meeting up with a whole group of orphaned animals. Fone and Smiley meet up with every possible bad guy to date on this mini side-expedition bringing lots of excitement and the usual humour. Fone and Smiley are definitely my favourite two characters though I did miss the red dragon's usual cameo.

Once Again, Great Color with a Hitch,
By D. G. D. Davidson "www.scificatholic.com" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bone #5: Rock Jaw: Master of the Eastern Border (Paperback)
The fifth and middle installment of the Bone series returns to the epic's beginnings, temporarily putting aside the Valley's violent political upheavals for a fast-paced and funny story of Fone Bone and Smiley Bone encountering an assortment of cute talking animals as they try to return a baby rat creature to its home in the mountains. On the way, they run into the opportunistic Rock Jaw, a giant mountain lion, and the two stupid rat creatures, who are still bent on baking Fone Bone into a quiche.Probably the weakest of the Bone series, Rock Jaw: Master of the Eastern Border is nonetheless exciting and entertaining, and does contribute further development to the story's unfolding mysteries. Steve Hamaker's coloration is again bright and pleasing, but once again he mixes up the two stupid rat creatures. Physically identical but with distinct personalities, the rats are color-coded (brown and purple) in the color version, but at one point Hamaker switches them, causing some puzzlement.

This review is from: Bone #5: Rock Jaw: Master of the Eastern Border (Paperback)
We have all of these books. I got them to read to my two daughters age 7 and 9, but I enjoy them just as much. Humor and adventure good for adults as well as youngsters. The artwork is wonderful and colorful, the characters expressive and the storyline is wonderful. The binding and paper is solid and of great quality. Thick card stock. The colors are full and jump out at you. Love every last book. We have the whole collection.
