enjoyed this slightly less than the second. But it wrapped things up nicely, in keeping with the allegorical themes developed up to this point.

I thought this book was a step up from the first. Some of the concepts were truly creepy. And one scene had me lost in the story, which doesn’t happen often for me.

A very fun book. Entertaining, action-packed. It may not be on my list of favorites, but I think if I’d read it while at the age of the targeted audience, it would have been.

Spoilers in here, BEWARE O!
The Final Storm was a good book, although King Eliam was not quite painted in as much splendor as he deserved and the battles got involved and muddled at the end.   I think that there should have been a little less stress on Robby & the other’s choosing, and more on their trust of King Eliam.

That aside, it was pretty cool to see Robby turn out as a friend after the awful scare we all received with his dad, who turns out to be Paragor’s second in the Other Realm!   Really that part was done well, like when Robby finds that his friendship with Aidan was stronger and more compelling than all the flattery, lies and violence coming from his dad and the Glimpses from Paragor.   Trenna the huntress was an interesting addition to the character list too, and Robby’s rescue of her from the spiders was a good point.   Maybe my favorite part (besides the epic ending) is how Robby tames the cranky untame dragon Splinter and how Aidan’s big pet mortiwraith friend comes to his and Antoinette’s rescue when no-body else can.

Really the best though was when Aidan posed as Blarrak, a slopppy Paragor knight, and went into the Gates of Despair to rescue Antoinette! (and of course he did).   But it’s never easy, because Aidan’s commander Drang, and Kearn, Robby’s mean Glimpse double, suspect!   Find out just how he does it, with Antoinette & an aged sage to keep track of, and Drang on his tail with a half-dozen men!

Warning, spoilers ahoy!
I would definitely say that book 2 in The Door Within Trilogy is cool. Here, Aidan (main hero who has been to Alleble and become a Knight in the service of King Eliam) meets Antoinette, the human double of the girl he *liked a lot* in Alleble. At first he doesn’t recognize her because she is part of the ‘trench coat clan’ and has dyed her hair red. That problem is quickly solved when they start sword-fighting in her backyard and she bloodies his nose. After learning out all she can from him about Alleble, Antoinette is surprised to see Aelic, (Aidan’s Glimpse double) in a brief encounter in which he orders her to come to Alleble because she’s been called.

So! Antoinette promptly enters The Door Within and crosses the long bridge to Alleble, where she is chosen as the Twelfth Knight to go on a dangerous mission to the realm of Yewland, where Queen Illaria reigns and has begun threatening that her woodland kingdom of brave archers will join the ruthless and deadly Paragor and separate from Alleble. All that Antoinette can think about, after a few harrowing scrapes in Yewland, is what Aidan told her before she left Earth: his best friend Robby’s Glimpse double had joined the enemy Paragor, which meant that his human double was in grave danger! And Antoinette just saw Robby’s glimpse, a menacing young fellow called Kearn! At the end of the book, we are faced with a troubling decision: will Antoinette stay in safety or will she pursue Kearn in hopes of rescuing him??? Find out in The Rise Of the Wyrm Lord, Book Two in The Door Within Series!
