The Sea of Terror
Audiobook (Includes supplementary content)After helping Princess Grace foil the villainous Prince Ruprecht—twice!—junior knights Tim, Belinda, and Ferkle are on a new quest—this time to recover the Queen of Merryland's precious golden fleece (and more importantly, the protective amulet in its pocket) from the Kingdom of Dinkum. The safety of all Merryland depends upon them.
But first, they must face the deadly Sea of Terror and the dastardly perils it contains. Tim and his friends will have to use every ounce of bravery, valor, and intelligence they possess to navigate the treacherous waters—or else risk becoming flotsam on the waves.

Gr 2-5-Frazier has always been bestselling Gibbs's voice-of-choice, either solo or in aural cahoots with others. Consistency is especially key here, as Frazier energetically returns with Gulley, Hakimi, and Issaq to enliven the third volume of "Once Upon a Tim," Gibb's graphic hybrid series comprised of prose, pictures, and panels. To read the volumes in order predictably provides deeper engagement, but Gibbs's swashbuckling antics (with clever nods to Odyssean exploits) offer plenty of stand-alone thrills and chills (bargleboar snot, the Mystical Protective Amulet of Merryland, "loose"-as in decapitated-hydra heads) into which the sprightly cast infuses plenty of just plain fun. Gibbs, of course, doesn't skimp on his edifying "IQ boosters," using plenty of big words-defined and annotated!-such as harangue, fleece (because it has multiple meanings), ravenous, bellicosely, and that dreaded cliff-hanger, which is how he ends the book. "This is good news," he insists, "because it means there are many more adventures for you to enjoy about [Tim] and [his] friends." VERDICT All formats of the series (the fourth book hits November 7) are perfect for reluctant readers.
