The book was completely awesome... I loved the characters and the diversity of personalities. Spiders, Dragons, Trolls, Magic, Berserkers what else do you need? Humor, tragedy and the whole gamete of other emotions. There needs to be a sequel. The Sea of Trolls simply rocks. Write on Nancy Farmer.
I read this book with my 5th grade son and was astounded at the way the story pulled us in and kept us wanting to read. The characters are inspired and the story is captivating. It is my hope that a sequel will follow as this book was written with the same level of story telling mastery as Lord of the Rings and with imagination and simplicity of reading as is seen in Harry Potter. Give us more Jack and Jill stories. Well done Nany Farmer.
