Rating: 5 stars
Summary: They just keep getting better and better..
Review: and Discover the Destroyer doesn't break from tradition. The "Everworlders" plus Senna have six days to get back a dragon's things, but when Senna gets April captured (DELIBERATELY!) it really complicates things. Jalil and David come up with the one possible solution, but Senna stands in the way. And David's the only one who can overrule her. Better than ever, and now David has a whole new dimension. ~evil grin~ He ACTUALLY HIT Senna! ~cheers~

Oh, I'm the same person who posted this before, but I wanted my name up.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Another awesome Everworld book.
Review: Discover the Destroyer was another awesome book in the Everworld series. It dealt with the four kids, plus Senna, having to escape Fairy Land, which isn't such a great place after all. Like the rest of the books, it was exciting and thrilling. I can't wait to read #6, Fear the Fantastic.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Can't wait for #6! Luv this series.
Review: I read all the books so far (cept 3) and I LOVE THIS SERIES EVEN BETTER THAN ANIMORPHS. Okay I still read animorphs, but Everworls is a good series to "graduate" to if you've been reading animorphs scince she first started writeing tham (like myself). I've been reading them as K.A.'s been writeing them and I think it's as close as a real adventure as I'll ever get to. If you have'nt read either Animorphs or Everworld, trust me, you are seriously missing out. Oh, one more thing, they get better as she writes along, so I'm drooling just wondering where #6 will take me.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Everworld: Discover the Destroyer
Review: I think this book was great and all, because of the adventure and suspense of the book. The four kids' hearts are all turned into rubies, by the dragon Nidoggher. They must fulfill their task requsted by the powerful dragon, so that their hearts will turn into hearts and not stay as ribies. It's very exciting how the story unfolds and ends. I recomend that you read this book, if your an Animorph lover.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A tad weak, but it's Everworld...
Review: I was totally impressed by "Realm of the Reaper", so I guess it affected my opinion of "Discover the Destroyer." But it was still pretty good. EVERWORLD is picking up pace. The gang, obligated to a dragon, wind up in Fairy Land, which isn't quite what you would expect. Senna does something drastic, and David was more dimensional (is curious about that camp incident) Still, it was as if KA wasn't sure what she exactly wanted to do with this book. Still, if you're an EW fan, get this.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A good Everworld book
Review: If I could, I would probably give this book three and a half stars, because it is the best Everworld book so far.It had an intresting plot and a more complex misson then the first three ( I haven't read #4) and I really liked the dragon, Nidhoggur and the time limit he puts on them by exchanging their hearts for rubies. I still prefer Animorphs to Everworld, probably because I identify a lot more with Animorphs' characters. But if you like a fantasy/adventure story with some real life bits thrown in, read it, even if you haven't read #1. I don't think it matters too much what order you read Everworld in unlike Animorphs, as i read them totally backwards and still found it understandable.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A perfect continuation
Review: If theres one thing K.A. Applegate does well is continue a story you know should be over by then, and make it really interesting. This was a perfect continuation of the story, bring in the deal between the kids and Nid(I cant spell the rest of his name!) to journey to fairy land and recover his "prized" posessions. If I were an adult I dont think I could pull of the thoughts of a teenager, but Kathryn does it well. Sometimes David bothers me sometimes though. I think the way the kids think of a plan is better than anything I could of thought of. The things that K.A. thinks of are really imaginative. Like how the kids use a bit of electricity to make a teglegraph,a simple device by our standards, to give the fairies a thrill and help themselves. So the short book kept me on my toes reading about how they just barely escape death once again by giving Nid a taste of his own medicine. hehehe

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This book is the best!
Review: If you are looking for an exciting and a dangerous adventure, this is the book for you. David, Christopher, April and Jalil have a journey to get Galahad's gold back from some leprechauns who stole the gold. There is only one problem. Sena, another member of the group, is the reason why they can not go back to their homes. I thought this book was interesting because the characters were brave and show respect to each other. The book was well written. The author writes clearly so that the reader can understand the story well. So if you want to find out if the five kids are going to make it back to their home or not, READ THIS BOOK!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely hilarious with an interesting look on David...
Review: Picking up where the previous book had left off, this one pit the group against a VERY large dragon who has more money than Bill Gates on its own mountain! Applegate does well in sending the kids on a quest (which involves a repeated gimmick involving the bottom half of a satyr running around the scene igniting comic relief and a nymph for part of the book) to find part of the dragon's stolen treasure and so they must go out to the land of the Faries unless they want their hearts to turn into flames within six days. Christopher's humor is well represented although this is not one of this books. Yet the secrets of the Everworld kids start to unveil themselves to the audience. Where Jalil's Obcessive-Compulsive Disorder was the focus of the previous book, readers will finally get a hint as to WHY David is the leader of the group and why he is so defensive (Applegate does well in making it subtle enough so as to not disturb you). And once again, Senna is further explored although she remains elusive to the truth and the audience STILL doesn't know what's totally going on with her. However, this was a sure fun book to read, and when the end comes the largest threat in all of Everworld must now be confronted... yes, you know who I'm talking about. Definitely essential to the storyline and a great lead-in for what is to come.
