Enjoyment
Pendragon is a very good book, with suspense and great villains[my favorite characters]. He is rather teenage acting, as he is 14, a school jock and straight "A" student. He is a Traveler, someone who travels through flumes in inconvenient places to get to other territories, or planets to stop evil and wars that are caused by Saint Dane, a transforming man who is working to end the good days of Halla, the name for all of time, territories, and space so Pendragon must help his uncle stop Saint Dane. I must read all 8 before I'm able to explain fully. Don't stop reading now though.

Tween friendly
This is not the best for the appropriate records. Right off the back the romance kicks in. A kiss 1 paragraph into the book does not bode well for either enjoyment or tween friendliness. The language is not satisfactory either, even worse than the romance. The author uses cuss words for effect when she doesn't need to, and parents voted no. Violence is slight, but eventful.

I am really surprised at the inappropriateness of Pendragon. When you look at the cover, it looks like it should be fine. I'm really glad you are getting this information out there so buyers can beware! Grandma Barb
