The bad guys
I didn't think this series could get any better, but it did!!!
Ok, y'all! I didn't think Piers Platt was gonna bust out a sequel that was even better than the first book! But. He. Did!
I was engrossed from the first paragraph and found myself wanting to read Escape from Olympus until I couldn't hold my eyes open any longer. It was that good!
Action-packed until the end, Escape from Olympus begins with a bang of a first chapter! It had my heart racing and my mind reeling.
I don't like to post reviews with spoilers, so I will just say that even if you haven't read the first book, Escape from Oz, you can totally get down with this book. It works prerty well as a stand-alone, although you will have missed a tiny bit of background on Falken which may confuse you for a split second in a couple of parts, but it's not vital to enjoy the story at hand.
Piers Platt did an amazing job relating the world of Olympus and its inhabitants. I was also very impressed with the fact that I actually liked the villians because he did such a great job with their personalities. I was completely invested in the fates of ALL characters in this story and I can't remember that ever happening to me in a book like this.
I am waiting dor my weekend to calm down so I can start the third book, Return to Oz! There was an excerpt of the first chapter at the end of this book, and I am so ready!!!
  
The Book of Boba Fett
The Book of Boba Fett
2021 | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
Mandalorian 2.5?
So, Boba Fett.

Bounty hunter working for Jabba the Hutt.

Fell into the Sarlacc pit in Return of the Jedi.

Reappeared in season 2 of The Mandalorian.

And now has his own series.

Or does he? Only 7 episodes long, this is very much a series of two halves: the first half full of flashbacks to what happened to Boba between the time of his escape from the Sarlacc pit (and how he managed that) and his reappearance in Season 2 of the Mandalorian, while the second (and better) half is more akin to The Mandalorian season 2.5!
