My favorite of the quartet! Morwen is a badass witch. ;) ( )

This is the third book of the Enchanted Forest Chronicles.

Once again the wizards are up to no good. This time King Mendenbar's magic sword has disappeared. A familiar cast of characters set off to retrieve it.

This story is told from the perspective of the witch, Morwen. Her interactions with her (many) cats are amusing. They can all talk to her (and each other) and have a range of amusing personalities. Ultimately, however, this book left me flat. We know these characters pretty well at this point, and we've seen their various personality quirks play off each other many times in the previous books. The quest includes some interesting adventures, but ultimately the book feels like variations on a well-worn theme.

My daughter (age 8 when she first read it) loved it.

Need to read again to remember the unique bits of each book. I do remember loving all the characters though. ( )

Book 3 in the series. Instead of being told from the princess's point of view it is told by the witch's. it is just as fun as the others, maybe not the best in the series but still entertaining. ( )

Book 3 of a series, this one is told through the witch's perspective which was great because you finally got to understand what all of her cats were saying! This one wasn't as great for me as the first two because I hate getting a cliffhanger when I'm not expecting one. ( )

Those wicked wizards are back--and they've become very smart. (Sort of.) They intend to take over the Enchanted Forest once and for all . . . unless Cimorene finds a way to stop them. And some people think being queen is easy.
