Under Wildwood: The Wildwood Chronicles, Book II
Colin Meloy, Carson Ellis
Ever since Prue McKeel rescued her brother from the wicked Dowager Governess and returned home from the Impassable Wilderness, life has been pretty dull. But when dark assassins, a dangerous businessman and a freezing winter all threaten the residents of Wildwood, Prue is drawn back in to their world. Together, she and her friend Curtis will face their greatest challenge yet: to save themselves and the lives of their friends, and to bring unity to a divided country.

It was a very nerve racking story with some very creepy parts to it. It made me think in a whole new perspective I’ve never thought about before and taught me how to view things from someone else’s point of view and step in their shoes to feel what they feel and understand their emotions.

This book was the next part to the one that I already read. It follows what happened next to Prue and Curtis. Curtis decides to stay in Wildwood and become a real Wildwood Bandit. Prue is back at school and she has a new teacher who is a bit too friendly and it turns out that she’s a shapeshifter and not a real teacher! Prue gets rescued by Curtis and Brendan who swoop down riding birds and take her back to Wildwood to keep her safe. Meanwhile Curtis’s sisters are left at an orphanage while their parents go to Russia to look for Curtis but it’s not really an orphanage but a workshop and they have to work in a factory making things out of metal. Until they meet the Chapeaux Noirs and join them to overthrow the Titans in the Industrial wastes. The story ends on a cliffhanger. Prue has to find the two machinists who made Alexi the mechanical boy prince but the dowager governess has blinded one of them and cut the hands off the other one, it all seems totally impossible. I can’t wait to read the next book. I love the adventure in this book and quite wish that I was a Wildwood bandit living in the trees and having fun. I would definitely recommend this book.

brilliant book! I thought it was a fun read, even though big book I thought it was worthy of being long. I would recommend this book to children aged 7-17

This is the second book in the series. I loved the moles in this tale, because they were funny and added a touch of humour to its otherwise slightly dark storyline.
