The book was in decent condition but the cover was completely different than the picture. I had wanted the cover in the picture as I wanted to display the book but the cover of the one that I got does not look the best. Otherwise, the book was fine.

  • My book review of The Prophet of Yonwood

    The Prophet of Yonwood is book 3 of Jeanne Duprau's "The City of Ember" book series. She is a very good writer! I enjoyed reading book 3 and couldn't wait to receive book 4 ; in which I purchased when I was done reading The Prophet of Yonwood. If you want an adventure read her books!

  • The Prophet of Yonwood

    This book was interesting on it's own. The twist was how it fit in with the other two books in the series. I can hardly wait for her 4th book.
