Critics Review

A smart, funny read that will keep children on the edge of their seats
Daily Express
There is heartfelt emotion behind the jokes and wild pencil drawings
The Sunday Times
Exudes relentless energy...embelished with plenty of the clashing fonts, ink blots and scribbly pencil drawings that make this series of books so unique...takes the saga to a new level and is an enormously enjoyable read
The Bookbag
Exciting adventures, great characters and plenty of jokes and funny drawings make Hiccup's adventoures some of our favourite books
tBK Mag
As gripping and as rousing as ever...as with the best children's literature, these books are about much bigger things: endurance, loyalty, friendship and love. And Cowell's illustrations and visual storytelling enhance the action no end
The Daily Telegraph

This is a repeat of my reviews of the other books :)

It is just an amazing story told with humour and seriousness at the same time. I have cried during the last two.

Tennant’s narrations ads to the experience as he brings all the characters to life.

I love books that work for kids and for grown-ups (I am 52)
