My 11-year old enjoyed all the books in the series. Finished them all in very quick time. Now his younger sister has got her teeth into them after hearing him rave about the books. For any parents out there trying to get their children to read over the summer, this series would be a good choice. This review is for all the books in the series.

I have read all of the Five Ancestors Books to date and really enjoyed them all. This one was no different. I actually thought this would be the end to the series...but....guess what! The story is an easy, enjoyable read. It is a good book with a little hint of romance between Hok and the Dutchman (maybe?). Lots of action and intrigue to keep you going and I can't wait for the next installment. The writing is tight and easily understandable even though it is explaining customs that the characters are tied to, it's never done in a boring way and I have to say you never really know what is coming next. However, we will be able to find out in February 2009 Five Ancestors #6: Mouse (5 Ancestors).

A book written with this much emotion and character should be read by all ages. Along with all the other books in this captivating series, "Eagle" is truly a work of art. The knowledge behind everything in this book honestly reflects the dedication of the author. Through the author's writing style, I can clearly see the characters thoughts, appearances, and actions. Congratulations to Jeff Stone on another amazing book. I look forward to reading the next book(s) in this amazing series. If you are ever looking for a pleasing book to read on the airplane, or on a nice sunny day, I suggest anyone of the Five Ancestor books. Have a wonderful day, and happy reading!
