Imagination, adventure and everything dreams are made of make this a fantastic tale to read again and again. The Guardians have been able to keep the evil Pitch at bay, but not defeated him completely. Jack Frost is probably suffering more than the other Guardians as he tries to come to terms with his new identity as half-human and only half of what he once was, Nightlight. Still, the battle is not yet done as Pitch threatens with his plans again. To stop him, Jack and the Guardians head to the moon for the help of one more being. But the trip and defeating Pitch will not be an easy thing. I did not read the other books in this series—a mistake. I would highly recommend reading this as a series. What a fantastic tale! The author unleashes the world of fantasy in an exciting and vibrant tale. Every page offers something new, making it a read not easy to put down. The story twists and turns, not only with unexpected moments and characters, but even Jack incorporates a story within himself. Jack is a character to love and inspires. It's easy to root for him...along with the other Guardians...the whole way through. The author has created a rich world, which is a treat to sink into. The characters have very distinct, fun personalities and give the story the perfect zest at the perfect time. There are sure to be a few favorites, and ones to hate as well. Mix this with the fantastical creatures, which really seem to stomp out of a dream, and it's a fantasy to fall in love with. Illustrations dabble the pages and simply add to the excitement. I enjoyed simply flipping through and gazing at them. Not only do they help keep the read exciting even for more reluctant readers, but they add even more life to the story. But then, I'm an illustration fan. Summed up, this is a great read and will make fantasy fans' hearts beat faster. I received a complimentary copy and enjoyed it so much that I wanted to leave my honest thoughts. Oh, this series. So, so good. I love these characters, the story, and Joyce's gorgeous prose. These books will always hold a very special place in my heart, because they helped my now-10-year-old son get through some pretty rough bedtimes when he was younger and so scared of nightmares. He found such comfort in the idea that the Man in the Moon and the Sandman and Nicholas St. North and all of them are out there protecting him and all children from the Nightmare King. And he still believes, bless him; and he believes that this version is the definitive version of these figures. He believes, he believes, he believes, and for that I am so grateful. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

The character of Jack Frost was quite a bit different in the film that goes with this series, but I like this origin story just as much since it makes sense when paired with the tale of the Man in the Moon. We heard in his book about the battle between the Nightmare King, but we didn't hear anything about his character. This book answer that question, and gives Jack Frost a clear place in the mythology of the world - protecting the children of Earth the same way he did the Man in the Moon before he grew up. ( )
