Threadbare has been kidnapped by pirates!

But this is just the first step in the plan of the malevolent and mysterious puppeteer who's manipulated the pirates into bear-nappery. Which was supposed to be a proper princess kidnapping, but things went a bit sideways.

To uncover this strange mastermind's plan and properly thwart it, Threadbare must play along, keep his friends alive while they attempt to rescue him, make new friends, and help the old ones during this dangerous journey to parts unknown, all to confront the deadly and devious beastkin known only as the Phantom of the Lop Ear…

Funny and entertaining

Enjoyed this series muuuch more than any of the others ive listened to by this author. The plots engaging with well developed, lovable characters and tons of meta humor throughout. I found it pretty funny, depends on your sense of humor i guess but i felt he did great in that aspect of the book. In this one we follow threadbear posing as Celia and get to know his bunny captors a bit and find out more about this "lop ear" character. Theres a few characters that were reintroduced from the "blasphemy" series preparing for the inevitable combination of this cast and that one but i was a little disappointed he didnt lean into that side of the story more. The next book isnt long enough to fit all the explanations he left out of the ending of that series as well as wrapping up this one ( trust me i know, I've already finished it). I feel like he couldve spent more time doling out pieces of the puzzle so our beloved teddy could start putting them together into a semblance of a picture. There were some minor things in this book tying it together with blasphemy but i felt like there was entirely too little..

Diversity embraced

I really enjoyed the real issues raised in a light hearted way. The puns were exceptionally dad quality! I thought it may have been a teen or child’s book series at one point, it handles adult themes quite well.

Lovely volume in the series, with tie-in to other

Threadbare and company fight mysterious forces, make new allies, and entertain the happy reader.

I love these books!

I'm actually ready to start the series over so I can finish just as the new book comes out! have loved these so much

unfocused

seems like the author isn't quite sure where to go now now, still a good story with plenty of cuteness
