Series Info/Source: This is the third and final book in the Dam Keeper series. I borrowed this book from the library.

Story (4/5): This is a fun and simple conclusion to this series. We find out the secret of what happened to Pig’s father and then our team of characters returns home to fight the impending black fog. This ties up the series nicely and was a good story, if a bit predictable and shallow.

Characters (4/5): I continue to enjoy the characters well enough. Pig is determined to make things right and I enjoyed his reunion with his father. Pig’s friends are actually a bit more entertaining than pig himself.

Setting (4/5): I love the world that this is set in. It’s a typical fantasy “world run by animals” type of place. However, the introduction of the floating island that Pig ends up in added a bit more to the story.

Writing/Drawing Style (4/5): This was well written and easy to follow. It’s definitely meant for a younger age group; the story is fairly simple and predictable. I loved the drawing style here, it’s very creative and well done and is pretty much what makes these books.

My Summary (4/5): Overall I enjoyed this and it’s great for all ages. This is definitely aimed at a younger age group but I think adults that enjoy the artwork style will like this as well. There are themes of friendship, family, and being determined to do the right thing throughout the story. The highlight of this for me was the artwork but I also enjoyed how the overall story was tied up. ( )

As boring as the first two, with a side helping of depressing. I still haven't seen the movie on which this is based, but at least now I know how the story ends.

It bugs me that on the credits page "producer/agent Kane Lee" comes before the actual artists. Maybe jam HR and the accountants in there too? Hrm. ( )
