The quest to save the Oracle forces Team BBB to split up: one group heads to the top of an ancient mountain, the other into the depths of a haunted jungle. For Hannah, it’s an all out fight that pushes her magic to the limits, while Karl is tasked with something far more challenging - diplomacy. Both groups will need to depend on the strength of their teammates, while cautiously navigating the cultures and practices of strange, new inhabitants of the furthest reaches of the world.

Darkness Rises
I found a great story to read, or well listen to anyway. I do the audible, and I’m loving it, like a fat man at McDonald’s.
The story has kept in line with what I’ve come to expect, which is awesome.
We are getting magic and badassary while the authors have continued to keep the stupid out of the characters, a hard feat sometimes.
The performance is done in a way that gives you the feeling Rudd is living her words and might just be the narrator telling the kids the truth of the ages.
I’m happy, and I can’t wait to get into the next one.

I just love this series and the authors are so talented. I truly look at Hanna as the Princess Bitch. I’m so looking forward to her powers growing and I’m so happy Gregory is finding his place. However Sal is still my favorite cause who doesn’t love Dragons 🐉. Highly recommend

Darkness Rises: The Rise of Magic, Book 6
The authors notes brought me right back to being an awkward teen falling in love with the Dragonlance series and living in that world for a while. I borrowed those books from a fellow awkward teen and had to give them back when after his home had burned down and he lost most of his things. I actually was, of course, happy those books got saved from the fire because I had borrowed them – but was sad to give them back. Fantasy books have always, since Dragonlance, been among my favorites to read. This installment didn’t disappoint. Hannah and her group are finally able to get to the home of the Oracle and have to fight beasts unlike anything they have ever seen before. I appreciate the deepening bonds with all the characters. This book was very good!
