OMG! This series keeps getting better and better with each book we read. My son (11) and I just finished this 4th book, and we ADORED it! My son rated it a thousand stars. 😍😍 We agree it is the best of the series, but we said the same thing about book 3. 😳😳 So far, each of the books has been a complete story with a final ending, but this 4th book ends on a cliffhanger that continues in book 5, which is the last book of the series. We've been babying these last two books trying to prolong the time before we must say goodbye to Gregor and his friends. 😭😭 Ms. Collins is such a gifted author. I'm surprised this series isn't more well known, especially when you consider the popularity of her Hunger Game series.
Our favorite characters are all here; Gregor the MC, his sister Boots, Princess Luxa, and Hazard, Luxa's cousin, whom we met in book 3. Of course, my all-time favorite, Ripred, is prominently featured. As with all the other books, the story in book 4 is exceptionally well-written, action-packed, and riveting. The author has a talent for ending every chapter on a cliffhanger that compels you to keep reading to find out what happens next. My son has had many a late-night since we've been reading this book because we just couldn't put it down!
If you have a middle-grade reader (8-12), this is a series they should not miss, especially if they enjoy fantasy. This series is simply amazing. I love it, and I've even recommended it to my 14-year-old daughter. Happy reading!

"...and one that I look forward to revisiting in the future."
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2019
This review is for Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane, Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods, and Gregor and the Marks of Secret (Underland Chronicles, #2-4).I've really enjoyed reading this series to my kiddos! We're on the last book now (Gregor and the Code of Claw) and had stop due to uncontrollable crying (mine). I don't think I'll be able to keep reading this one to them before bed, because my tears make them think something is wrong with me. It's hard to explain that nothing is physically wrong, just Suzanne Collins shredding my heart. She has a knack for making you love characters, and then destroying you with them later on.This series does have some darker aspects, so I've had to be selective about what I read out loud. They're still a little young to hear about mass murder and excessive violence. It's meant for middle grade readers, and I think it's perfect for that age, but there is a lot of death and sadness (feelings a five-year-old might not be ready to address).I love everything about this series. The characters, the world, the individual prophesies -- all amazing, detailed, and expertly executed. I try to figure the prophesies out as I read, but nothing is clear until the very end (not for me or the characters). The giant bats, rats, and cockroaches are all very unique and interesting. Boots, Gregor, Luxa, Henry, Ares, Temp, Ripred, Twitchtip -- I really do love them all! Everyone brings something to the story, and this series wouldn't be the same without every single one of them. Collins has created a story that I will remember for the rest of my life, and one that I look forward to revisiting in the future.Originally posted at Do You Dog-ear? on March 23, 2019.
