It is different--different sort of narrator, different tone. Still a great story. I'm taking note, and thinking about letting the Ninja Librarian speak for himself some in the next book.Rebecca M.

I've heard the fourth is a bit more "advanced". I actually like the idea of mixing it up - it seems to work in keeping the reader engaged with the series. Thanks for sharing your review in the Kid Lit Blog Hop! I've got to keep reading this series!!Renee C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07351071483275676742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52364159500107393.post-85705874971705305592014-06-05T18:16:43.755-07:002014-06-05T18:16:43.755-07:00Always my pleasure--you know I love the books!Always my pleasure--you know I love the books!Rebecca M.

I decided to let it stretch a little as the series progresses.. BV has less violence (hardly any) and the only paranormal is of a previously identified character, so it isn't relevant to the plot. What BV has is an introduction to technological innovation and venture capital for 12 year olds (not in those words!) And its free on kindle next Tuesday and Wednesday :D<br /><br />Thanks for reviewing Traveler, Rebecca, it's much appreciated!Jemima Petthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17110647375899927233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-52364159500107393.post-72240997182854348362014-06-05T06:39:42.625-07:002014-06-05T06:39:42.625-07:00Thanks for coming by, Tina!

Maybe nothing about this, or any of them; I never know really and there's a lot of violence in kids books these days. Rebecca M.

I'm thankful for your warning that it's more of a PG-13 book. Knowing that, I'll wait a little longer before handing it to my 9-year old.
