Book Reviews of Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane (The Underland Chronicles, Book 2)

Book Review: I love this series!
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved the first book, and the second book did not disappoint.

Collins does an excellent job bringing us up to speed with Gregor's life, and does not cheapen the first book by making everything 'perfect' for Gregor and his family after he completed the first quest that he had to. The reasons for him returning to the Underland are compelling, and I was swept up in the drama of the story right away. Not only was his home life not perfect, but life in the Underland isn't perfect either. Anyone who has already fallen in love with the Underland characters will be glad to see them again, and to get to know more about their stories. There are also several interesting new characters who arrive (Luxa's cousins) that promise more interesting plots in the future!

The book doesn't end as satisfyingly as the first book. While the story makes sense and completes in a good place, there are still a lot of unanswered questions that makes me even more anxious to pick up the next one. If the third book wasn't already out, I'd be miserable!
