Trilogy that was EPIC
My favortie set of book from the Hobbit to Return of the King. The acting in amazing, the story follows the books from start to finish. Not for young kids ofcourse but it's better if read all of the book before seeing the movies. Orlando Bloom was the best in the movies in my opinion
  
A very enjoyable read.
This book is definitely feisty and fun.
Another good strong woman character.
This is book 1 of a trilogy so the story is not completed. To know what happens to the relationship between the Rock God and the less than impressed Housekeeper you need to read book 2. It leaves you wanting more – in a good way.

Obsessed with anything/everything Barsugo touches
I won this book from a smashbox give away, and I was SO EXCITED. when it showed up it was a hardcover and not a paper back and the story line is so much better than I thought. I love the Grishaverse and how we are getting back with the characters from the original trilogy.

OMG I loved this book so much!
This series is like the Hunger Games combined with Jurassic Park! Its an easy smooth read with interesting characters, action and the whole package! I would recommend this to any YA fan that wants a new unputdownable trilogy... I will warn you though that when you finish the series it will break you!!

Almost amazing
The end of the Unbreakable trilogy was almost amazing, though left a lot of new questions unanswered. The story was decent, and the telling was mostly ideal. There were some timing issues which pulled the audience out of suspended disbelief.
  
In the second book of the Peter Pan prequel trilogy, Peter heads to London to try to warn Molly that someone is searching for the star stuff. It was a bit long winded at time, but it was still a fun read.

The dragon returns home to find his entire family has been captured and he turns to Elmer for help in rescuing them. The trilogy winds down with a final fun tale about these unlikely allies using creativity against overwhelming odds.

One of Douglas Adams best
So I will admit that Douglas Adams work can take getting used to but if you like his style of confusing then you will love this. The trilogy in 5 parts is the general term for it, and it describes the fantastical world held with in these pages brilliantly

2008 | Action, Adventure, Fantasy
Somewhat of an enjoyable watch but an ageing Ford and an unnecessary sequel do not mix and this is a poor relation to the original trilogy.
 The film is very clunky dialogue wise and although full of action it still feels a little disjointed in places.
Harrison Ford is a great actor, however the character should have been retired some time back.

Fast paced story, likeable characters, not too technical (0 more)
It ended too soon....I wanted more (0 more)
Downloaded this as a free book to try something different and binged the whole trilogy in 2 days! The story has likeable characters and is fast paced. It is not too fantastical as some time travel books can be and the language wasn't too scientific or technical.
