Evaluation Epithetical Books The Cobra King of Kathmandu (Children of the Lamp #3)

The concept was good.It was the first book I read in the series. I thought I'd like it because I normally love fantasy novels and I thought that this would be good. Boy, I was wrong.While I loved the concept of the djinn, I disliked the plot,the action,the adventure...basically almost everything. The plot was shallow. It had great potential but most of the story just revolves around Nimrod teaching the genie basics to the twins and while I have nothing against that, I really think there should

Kerr, P.B. Cobra King of Kathmandu 384 p. Scholastic John, Philippa and their best friend Dybbuk travel to India on the hunt for a murderer not knowing that they must also save their Uncle Nimrod and breakup the resurrection of an old snake cult, whose leader is bent on capturing djinn for his own nefarious purpose. A likable, well-written addition to the series. EL, MS ADVISABLE

Phillipa and John Guant start their adventure when these people break into their house and try to steal their wisdom teeth. That is a big deal, because they are djinn, and if you get a djinn's wisdom teeth, you can make them your slave for life. The thieves are caught, and they left behind a rock medallion that has a simble on it. This sends them on an adventure to catch an evil djinn cult.

This book is addicting

3.75 stars. Some out of character actions to help the plot and at the end everything just seems to work out. Ended on a little bit of a cliffhanger, but the big plot points were resolved so that is nice. I didnt enjoy this one as much as the first two but it was still good.

This is #3 of Kerr's "Children of the Lamp" series, in which djinn (as imagined by Kerr) are quite real, and we follow the adventures of preteen djinn John and Philippa Gaunt. These are well-written, quite cohesively imagined, and take readers on trips all over the world (which warms my geographer's heart). Well, yes, as a matter of fact, I do like this series. I need to get the 4th for N. so I can read it too.

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;Or close the wall up with our English dead.
