Amazing Book!!!

The "Palace of Laughter" by Jon Berkley is truly an amazing book! The thrils and advendtures that Little and Miles take you through make you actually feel that you are really there! There is so much action and ups and downs in the book you really feel like you are one of the characters! Jon Berkley is an incredible author! You would really enjoy this book!

Very Enjoyable

This whimsical book is unlike anything else I've ever read. It is an odd blend of humor and creepiness. The author has put together some of the most amusing passages and imaginative descriptions to create a vivid world full of unforgettable characters. These magnificent characters are charming and believable, and I find myself wondering what their next adventures will be. This is a very entertaining book, and I can't wait for the sequel.

The Palace of Laughter Jon Berkeley

Totally engaging. Berkeley keeps the balance of light and darkness just right. My kids loved the characters and the magical atmosphere that pervades the story. On the other hand they also loved the scary bits especially when the story moves to the Palace of Laughter itself. The dialogue is witty and the world it's set in is filmatic and visually dramatic. Plenty to keep the reader entertained throughout. Berkeley leaves just enough unfinished business to leave you anticipating book two. This one is definately going to have Hollywood queueing up for film rights. Five stars

WE LOVE THIS BOOK! CAN'T WAIT FOR PART 2

I loved this book. This is the only book I've ever felt strong enough about to write a review. I started reading it to check out for my 10 year old son. I was hooked. It was interesting, fun, and the characters are so lovable. As a family we often read books aloud and this one had a fluid style that made it so easy. I read the whole book out loud to my 5 month old baby. While I don't think he appreciated it as much as I did, I am positively glowing over the experience. My 10 year old wrapped it up in about 3 days and wants to add that he also thought it was "totally awesome"! DON'T MISS THIS BOOK, IT IS GOING TO BE A CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (other books we've loved include Harry Potter, Bartimaeus Trilogy, Artemis Fowl, Narnia Chronicles, His Dark Materials:The Golden Compass, Unfortunate Events)
