Product Description

From School Library Journal

Grade 4-7–The Edge is filled with icky monsters, profoundly rotten villains, and shiny striving heroes, all with silly names such as muglumps, Orbix Xaxis, and Rook Barkwater. There are dangers behind every tree, mysterious fogs, stones that fly, and trolls and talking bears. In this fifth volume of the "Chronicles," Rook is a young under-librarian who is sent into the creepy Deepwoods to gather knowledge that might help the noble community of Knight-Librarians battle the evil Guardians of Night for control of the Edge. Sometimes Rook and his allies defeat the gluttonous logworms that devour everything in their path; at other times, the Guardians of the Night throw them into chains. Even Twig, hero of Beyond the Deepwoods, the first volume in the series, reappears to join the fray. Who will win? Does it really matter? These adventures pull readers along, and the pages flip by in no time. Riddell's antique-style illustrations add to the fun, depicting the characters' intricate costumes and crazy modes of transport. There's not a lot of substance here, but fans of Lemony Snicket, the "The Spiderwick Chronicles," and "Harry Potter" will devour it.–Walter Minkel, New York Public Library

5.0 out of 5 stars The Last of the Sky Pirates, May 13 2007
Do you like reading books with a lot of adventure in it? Well, I do too. If you do like this type of book, read this one. Rook Barkwater dreams of becoming a librarian night. Every morning, when everyone is still sleeping, he breaks the rules and goes to the library. Then there was a special ceremony day. That day, a miracle happens. That day, his adventure starts. This book is an adventure book. Its written in third person and its also a fiction book. It takes place in The Edge.

The key themes are Bravery and Adventure. Bravery because, Rook, Magda, and Stob have to be brave on there mission. Adventure because, Rook goes on amazing adventures. This books illustrations are magnificent! They are the most detailed pictures ever!

Paul Stewart uses great juicy words such as: bellowed, screeching, and throbbing. He is an amazing author and describes characters very well.
These characters are the most important characters in the book. Rook Barkwater, an under-librarian, Magda Burlix, and Stob Lummus both a librarian night, and

This is an enjoyable and exceptional book! I know a lot of people just love reading this book. I really recommend this book to kids ages 10 & up. It really is wonderful. Paul Stewart is an outstanding author. This book is part of The Edge Chronicles series and this whole series is great. I hope if you read this you will love it because it is a marvelous book. Happy Reading!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is not a baby book!
First, this is catagorized wrong. I would put it for ages 9 and up, probably. The reading level is fairly easy, but the content is rather dark. Read more
