Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods by Suzanne Collins

Book 3 in the Underland Chronicles

"Don't worry, he's a lot more competent than he seems."

Gregor has already solved 2 prophecies for the strange city, Regalia, which lies underneath New York.  Now they will call upon him again, and this time the mission comes a little too close to home.

These novels were written for a younger audience than Suzanne's other work (Hunger Games...maybe you've heard of it).  The Gregor series doesn't include a romance angle at all and it's main character is 11 during this series.  That makes it a great choice for kiddos to read.  The good news, it's a GREAT book!  Grab two copies and read it with your kids; you won't regret it!

Like the first two books, this one delivers on action and excitement.  I was also completely surprised by a few of the reveals, which is great considering it's been awhile since I've been surprised.  Overall, I loved this one.  Perhaps even more than the last because Gregor's mother plays a bigger role and it turns out I really like her.

All in all, 4 smiles and a wink.
