Rating: Summary: We want more Review: This whole series was a hit, it kept me reading and since it abruptly ends at this book (#6) I've been reading the 6 books over and over again, hoping for a change in heart by the author and a real ending, mind you that not rushing an ending in one book would be nice. Yes it is good for us, the readers, to use our imaginations a bit, but this was a complete cliff-hanger. The imagination/creativity is breath taking, never a cheezy moment. Mainly this book takes the story more towards an fantasy/horror story plot. Pixel is in trouble and of course Score/matt and renald/heliene jump right in to save him.... there seems to be little chance for sucsess.... what will happen?
Rating: Summary: Fun Reading Review: Fun reading, great characters and an interesting twist at the end! John Peel is a good writer. The next books in the series are to be published soon. (...)
Rating: Summary: absoloutely wonderfu; Review: Of all the series that I have ever read, this has to be one of my all time favorites. I started to read the Diadem series as a book report for one of my reading classes. I believe I was around 12, maybe 13 years of age. I loved the first book and I became hooked on the many sequals. I am now 16 years old and I still read the Diadem series. The characters are so well thought of, as are the villains. I was very disappointed when there were no more books after the sixth one, and I believe that John Peel left the ending like that so as to say, "There may be more coming!" Nothing could possibly ever end my love for the Diadem series. I would recommend these books to anyone of any age. I also recommend "The Secret of Dragonhome." I also own that and that is another of my favorite books.
Rating: Summary: The Whole Series Should be 5 Stars Review: This is one of the best series' ever. I read them first when I was nine, and was hooked. Then I stopped, and picked it up again when I was 13. I'm still hooked, reading them over and over again. The dialouge is great, and the characters are great. The mixture of backgrounds (i.e. street kid from earth, medieval girl who can use a sword from another planet, and a computer kid with blue skin and pointy ears from the completly computer ruled planet).
Rating: Summary: DIADEM WONDERS Review: I read the Diadem series at about the time the Animorph series was wildly popular, so that was about two or three years ago. I identified so completley with Pixel i was obsessed for months. Now, doing research on a fantasy video game I am working on with a friend, I picked up the Diadem series again. And I can't put them down. Score, Helaine, and Pixel hold my attention so fully that I have been re-reading all six for the past two weeks. And I wish there were more. However, there simply must be. If anyone else has put the books in a row from one to six, it is obvious that the covers were drawn to fade from one to the next. Arnak's face on the cover of 1 fades into Shanra's face on the cover of 2. The picture frame with the drawing of the Three Who Rule on the cover of book 3 continues onto book 4. There are parts of the cover of 6 that fade into what must be 7, eventually. So, this is my theory for why Diadem must contiue after book 6 and I hope that it will.
