Reviews for The Dark Planet (Atherton, Book 3)
26 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Reason for Reading: The last book in the trilogy. Comments: The third and final book in the trilogy focuses on a theme that the other books made us aware of early on, that of a post-apocalyptic Earth. Edgar follows a map left behind by Dr. Harding and finds himself on his way to The Dark Planet where he feels that everything has been set in motion for him a long time ago. Now is his time to save the children of this almost dead planet.I really enjoyed this book the most out the three and that's saying a lot as I have heartily enjoyed this trilogy. But I am a big fan of post-apocalyptic fiction and this was a really exciting story that included a dystopian society but does not get too heavy and keeps the book suitable for the middle grade reader. Edgar is back to being our main character as we've grown to really care for him through this series. Though Isabel and Samuel do have an important part to play back on Atherton, gone are all the supplementary characters from the first two books. Instead we are met with a whole new group of characters on Earth and the book feels fresh and new. Great story, great new characters and a refreshing new plot that still keeps it's ties to the one from the previous books while going in a completely new direction. A highly enjoyable read. Recommended! P.S. Even though it's sci-fi there is a dragon.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The Dark Planet is the third and final book in the Atherton series and there isn't a whole lot I can say without giving everything away.So....If you have read the first two books -- Book 1: The House of Power and Book 2: Rivers of Fire, then you will love The Dark Planet. All of our favorite characters are here plus some wonderful (and horrible!) new ones. Edgar learns more about where he came from and in true Carman style, all loose ends are tied up in time for great happy ending.If you haven't read the first two books -- what are you waiting for? Do it now!Carman is a great writer. He has yet to disappoint and I've read just about everything he has written so far :)Other Patrick Carman news * 39 Clues Book Five, which he wrote, is now available * Ghost in the Machine, the sequel to Skeleton Creek is being released October 1st - i can't wait!
