I love Pendragon and I love all of the characters. I accidentally read this before book 1, but with knowledge of the characters from all of the Pendragon books, it was just like visiting old friends.

My only complaint is that it seemed very short for the price and I love the characters so much that I wanted more. Perhaps it was just the Kindle that made it seem so short. I don't know.

For content I would give this book a 5 at it fulfills the curiosity Pendragon readers have about the characters' backgrounds as there are so many great characters and it is impossible to give as in-depth of a back story in the actual Pendragon series.

For price I would give a rating of 3. I read a lot of YA books and it is not going to be wise for me to continue to spend 7 dollars a book when the publishers spent not a penny for paper and binding.

Also, the description for each of the Before the War Series books is the same as the first one, which is why I didn't notice I had book 2 until I had almost finished it. This particular book features Aja Killian, Elli Winter and Alder.

The stories are fun and just the right amount of back information. I think the Before the War series could have been combined to make one novel sized back story adventure, but maybe I am just greedy.

DJ MacHale has done it again as his characters are fun and interesting. Thank you for writing another great piece to the series. Please kick the publishers for the ridiculous pricing and I think more people will read the Kindle version of this series.

i loved the first books. i hvae already read into this book a little bit and so far it is amazing. i am expecting the ending to be just as good and cant wait to read the third one

This was definitely another title within the Pendragon Before The War books that I didn't want to end. I had so much fun with this and the first title. These books are full of action and adventure and some fantastic characters that I look forward to running into in the Pendragon series. I highly recommend these titles to both kids and adults. Everybody will enjoy these tales for sure.

Read and gave to grandsons to read. It is appropriate for their ages of 10 and 12. Action and concept of responsibility. Better than Pendragon series.
