– This is the fifth and final instalment in the Spiderwick Chronicles, and the book in which all hell breaks loose. Upon returning home after having rescued their sister from the dwarves, the Grace children find their home destroyed and their mom missing. Only one goblin (sorry, hobgoblin) has lingered behind and is able to tell the children where the evil Mulgarath is holding court, and keeping their mom prisoner.
So the children embark on the final adventure that will decide the faith of pretty much all mankind. Much excitement! This is the book where every little plot-thread is neatly tied together in a nice plot-knot, and it is a very satisfying read. The writing is thrilling for young and old children alike (I, myself, am 22), and the illustrations are lovely.
