My ten year-old girl gobbled this book up. She's a voracious but discerning reader, so this is indeed high praise. The writing is clever, funny, and highly quotable (as we found out on a car ride when she was reading Sir Nathan). Lots of giggles.

I'm reading it now too and totally understand why my daughter loved it. Reminds me of Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, but for kids. Just has that fun-to-read style.

Highly recommended!
