Almost done with this stupid series. I'm making it no secret that I don't like it. So far it's my least favorite Geronimo Stilton series I've read. Ah well, spoilers ahead.

The fantasy adventure continues. Spoilers ahead.
This is one of these books I was planning on getting to eventually, but not for a few more years as I already have a very long TBR shelf. Then Dad got me the fourth book in this series as Christmas, and now I'm pretty much obligated to read books 1-3 so I can get to this book and not seem ungrateful for the gift. Ah well. Spoilers ahead.

Book three! Spoilers ahead!
Let's take a look at book two. Spoilers ahead.
Another Fantasy Kingdom series by a Stilton, however this time it's the Chronicles of Fantasy Kingdom rather than Princesses of Fantasy Kingdom, which I have reviewed before. I honestly wanted to check out book one of this series for quite a while now, but never did as a kid and even now that I have a library card I came to the sad realization that my library does not own book one of this series, only books two through six.
So I decided to get myself a secondhand copy of book one so I could emerge myself in the world of Fantasy Kingdom this way. Let's take a look. Spoilers ahead.
PS, just as a quick disclaimer beforehand for those who have read the Princesses series: So far I cannot find any real hints connecting these two books other than the world sharing the same name. None of the characters of the sister-series appear, nor are there any familiar locations or other aspects other than it being a fantasy series. So whether or not there'll be any true connection or overlap between the two series remains to be seen. It could very well be that they explicitly want both series to not be connected, I honestly do not know.
I've talked before about how I grew up reading a lot of the Geronimo Stilton books. However, The Kingdom of Fantasy was always special for me because it was my first look at a "big" Geronimo Stilton book (this one being almost thrice as long as the usual books published under his name). It's also quite different in tone, this one being a high fantasy rather than taking place in Stilton's usual mouse world.
So let's see if it still holds up after all these years. Spoilers ahead.
