The premise of this book was a interesting but I fault the execution because it really took too long. I like the idea behind the different creatures but it was revealed too late. I like that they mentioned a problem with humanity thinking itself above other beings but it was swept under the rug so it didn't get to have the importance that it might have had. Too many unanswered questions for me. The artificial depth here felt fake and so far in the series, it is. My goodness, now this is an excellent book! What a complete and compelling story! I could not put this book down!I felt the pacing was spot on. Being introduced to the characters and watching them grow was wonderful and everyone felt unique and had their own voice. The world that Keith Robinson creates and builds upon is delightful and leaves the readers wanting to know more. The story felt well developed and I was pleased that it covered questions or curiosities I had while reading it. The only slight "negative" I could say is some of the reactions seemed a little off. I wanted to reach through the book and shake a few characters around for being so dense. I have that in quotes since I was obviously quite engrossed in the story!I highly recommend this book for all age groups. It is one that I would be pleased to read again!
A pretty good book, especially for younger teens, as the main characters are all about 12.
