I liked the adventure in this story. Lots of battles and monsters.

An awe-inspiring end to a thrilling tale.

This was a great read, the last book in the Dreamsnatcher trilogy. My favourite character was Gryff because he was loyal to Moll and was willing to do whatever necessary to protect her. This was a fast-paced, action-packed book that I would definitely recommend to anyone who loves magic, adventure and bravery.

Deep within Tanglefern Forest, Moll and her wildcat, Gryff, are waiting for a sign from the Old Magic before they continue their quest to find the last Amulet of Truth and free the world from the Shadowmasks’ terrible magic.

Still missing fellow Tribe member, Alfie, and armed only with a mysterious set of clues, Moll sets out on an adventure across the northern wilderness with Gryff and her friend Siddy at her side. They must brave the Lost Isles, scale the Barbed Peaks and face witches, goblins and giants who lurk at every turn… while the Shadowmasks draw ever closer.

Can Moll, Siddy and Gryff find the friend they think they have lost? And do the Tribe have what it takes to defeat the dark magic once and for all?

This is my favourite of the trilogy. I loved the first, liked the second, and am thrilled by the third. Abi Elphinstone’s wild, adventurous, Scottish childhood really shines through in this last book. She writes with unbounded imagination about courage, friendship and hope. An exhilarating read, which makes me want to catch up on all her other stories.

A girl and a boy called Molly and Siddy have to find their camp friend and the last amulet and then their kingdom will be safe

24 Aug 2020

This story is absolutely awesome! It was exciting, adventurous, scary, full of dangers and sometimes quite sad. It had themes of friendship, hope and bravery. After finishing reading this trilogy, I am really happy that Moll and her friends overcame the evil of the Shadowmasks.

Moll was my favourite character because she is adventurous like me! She is also strong and feisty.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventures. I can't stop talking about it!

I liked this book a lot and I liked how the giants were the mountains.

30 Aug 2019

It was good because they went on an adventure and the author explained it very well. Some of the bits were confusing though. I would recommend it to people who like adventures.

16 Aug 2018

I liked this book because the girl in the story has to go on search of certain things to help her find the third amulet piece. A good adventure mystery story.

THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ

09 Aug 2017

This is an action packed book where the main character is on the search for the final amulet. I would recommend this book to eleven years and above.

04 Apr 2017

I have been wanting to read this book since I finished The Shadow Keeper - a great read, second in the trilogy. An amazing read for any Harry Potter fans. All about old magic and evil spirits. Created by the wonderful Abi Elphinstone!

26 Mar 2017

This is the last book of the dream snatcher series and it is the best of them all. I wizzed through it in about a week. I don't want to spoil it for you so I won't tell you anything about what happens in the book.
