   Reader note

   I highly recommend the first book. The beginning might be a bit off-putting, but it gets incredibly good later on! The ending is great… though there's a meteorite crater in the post-credits scene. The second book is also good, a bit more action-packed, with a heartwarming ending. I've only read a little of the third book, and I heard from other readers that it's made my CPU burn out… It's good, I love it, everyone should check it out!
