I've been very pleased with this series as a whole. My 8 year old son is reading an average of one Droon book a week - which is very exciting to see. It is the first book that has peeked his intrest in reading. If your child likes fantasy, magic and adventure and is still in the developing stages of reading give these a try.
Cool book!!

The Journey to the Volcano Palace
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I really liked the book. Eric, Julie, and Neal are going on a journey to the core of the volcano to find the jewel that Spar has stolen. Spar stole the jewel which is a glove with a diamond on it from the King. On their journey the three kids meet wizards, monsters and lumpies. The part when the lumpies attacked the fire monsters was the funniest part of the book. If you want to find out if the kids made it or not, read the book. I thought the book was going to be boring, but I ended up really enjoying the book and finished it really fast.
