Bobby Pendragon Returns With a Vengeance...Literally, May 13, 2007
Bobby Pendragon is back and he is older, more passionate and Halla is more complex than ever before. Welcome to the latest edition of the Pendragon series. The Pilgrims of Rayne is the best installment thus far, and there will be more to follow!
We know that the territories all have a turning point, but we have never seen anything like what happens in the latest installment. Do you miss Loor and Gunny and Spader? How about Alder? The Pilgrims of Rayne does not disappoint. MacHale gives us everything we want this time around. I mean everything. If you ever thought, "Why doesn't Bobby do this, or that?" It is all in here. The territories have been mixed and nothing is what it once was.
Make a wish, choose an adventure you would like to see, revisit territories, feel like everything is under control and all Halla breaks loose.
Sit back and enjoy the ride as Bobby Pendragon discovers more about who he is, what he is, what he can do, what he should be doing, and for the first time, what he might do without his closest friends who are no longer what they once were either.
The Pilgrims of Rayne is the best yet! The new Harry Potter has a lot to live up to.
Hobey ho, let's go!

MacHale is Back!, May 13, 2007
Quillan Games was so disappointing, I almost didn't buy Pilgrims, but, wow, am I glad I did! Suspense, excitement, drama, melodrama; it was all here. I'm expecially glad that Courtney, Mark, and Bobby are exhibiting more maturity intheir thoughts and deeds. It's about time these heros started acting rather than re-acting. Great read! I can't wait for # 9!
