    Here's what I thought of it:

    He did it again. Wayne Thomas Batson has written the best book of 2009. He also wrote the best book of 2008. And 2007, 2006 and 2005. It’s getting repetitive. Batson is getting awfully close to becoming my favorite author of all time.

    Curse of the Spider King pits seven seemingly normal kids who know nothing of their absolutely terrifying past against a wide array of nasty beasties including the frustratingly cruel Wisps, freaky dudes with X-men like blades protruding from their knuckles called the Drefid, and Cragons: big trees intent on crushing you in their branches. Only a janitor who everyone says has a few screws loose and a couple of middle school teachers seem to know anything about what’s going on. To put it simply, it’s almost impossible to stop reading this book once you’ve started. Read it. Now. Or a hungry Warspider might pay you a visit sometime.

    And one more thing. If Mr. Batson doesn’t release book 2 soon I’m going to go insane.

    Don't forget that Christopher Hopper co-authored the book...

    Yeah. It's just that CotSK is so different than The White Lion Chronicles that it's hard to think of it like that...

    Anyway, Amazon just posted the new Venom and Song coverart! It's so cool!

    On my computer, when I look at my profile, I see the Venom and Song cover. That's weird...

    Just popping in to ask: Does anybody know anything about a Berinfell Prophecies book after Venom and Song?

    I haven't heard anything yet. I don't think the authors have started it if there is one.
