This book is amazing.

I spent only 2 days on this book. It's an amazing cliffhanger! I have listened to all the land of stories books and they are all just so awesome. I could write much more about this (In a good way)

More less permanently changed my vision

So, I just wanna say that this is definitely the BEST story series I have ever seen. This has definitely changed the way I look at the characters, in school we are currently learning about fairy-tales and she mentioned Goldy Locks and I pictured a tall girl, with jack, a sword strapped to her side, and a menacing look. If you like fairy tales, I suggest you listen to this book. It is the most amazing, wonderful, detailed, and funny stories ever. Warning to younger viewers: the word d@mn is used a few times throughout the series

Amazing continuation!

While the first two books in this series are easy to love cause they take our fave fairytales and twist them up in awesome ways, then the third one takes us into other classic books, this installment is even more fun. In this book, we go into original stories that may even be more fun than the classics. A rip roaring pirate adventure, a cool space odyssey, an awesome superhero trip, and a run with mummies in an Indian jones like finish. All while the characters from the first four books have to work to survive a fairytale land taken over by villains! And nothing is better than listening to Chris Colfer narrate. I could listen to him read the phone book I love his vice so much, and his character voices are awesome too!

I hate cliff ends

I would have given this 5 stars but I hate it when a short book has a cliff end. I should be used to it with this series.
As with the other books the story plays out well and is a fun ride but you must read them in order or you will be completely lost.
Excellent reader!!

A good book ….( spoiler alert )

This book was good, but I like it less than the others. A lot of this one was not in the fairy tale world with those characters .My other issue with this book is there was a huge plot hole that I caught onto and I’m sure others did as well. When the boy and the masked man came through the portal, the masked man should not of been able to get through because he didn’t have any magic in his blood so he should’ve had to stay in the Portal for 200 years like the soldiers did from book 3. However, these are children’s audiobooks and as an adult I need to remember that because I do enjoy them, so pulling it apart would not be fair! I’ve seen a lot of adults. Give bad reviews with very low grades because they said it was “childish “ and will make comments such as “this is for a much younger audience “when it clearly says these are children’s audiobooks in the category. I think it’s unfair to give a bad review based on those reasons. However, I will be continuing the series, and when this series is finished, I plan on going to his other series that he made in 2019 called A Tale of Magic !! I’m pretty sure it’s the prequel to the land of stories so I’m excited
