5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book....Ending Mediocre Jun 21 2004
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This incredibly imaginative fantasy novel is Chilling Dazzling Enganging and many other adjectives. However, I found the whole Child takes care of dad to be a bit wierd/cliché. Anyways I Loved the way gods and stuff are created. This is one of the few books , like Lord of the rings and Dune that creates another society that has a mythology and customs. It is very engaging, the only dull part is the ending, which isn't that interesting....The first three quarters are a lot better. I love the very ending though. It is delightful. Anyways, I recommend it. There are two sequals: Witch Queen and Dragon Charmer (not in that order), which continue the plot, but each is a story on it's own, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book was great!!!! Oct 20 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I thought that Prospero's Children was a great book. Even though there were some parts that confused me, which Jan seigal did not verify. The different ways that Fern and Will reacted was very realistic and exiting. Out of all of the Atlantis books out there I would say that Prospero's Children is absolutly the best.

5.0 out of 5 stars a lovely fantasy July 11 2003
Format:Mass Market Paperback
a delightful and refreshing fantasy novel. The characters are quite intriguing and full of personality. the descriptions jan siegel uses in decribing the mythical characters helps you imagine the rock man and others. I look forward to reading the sequel.
