may still be alive The key is The Sculptor, who will lead Kiwi and
friends on their biggest adventure yet - to the strange Isle of the
Serpent where they will come face to face with their most dangerous
adversary so far. "With this book, Kiwi takes a giant pounce
forward as a literary treasure." - AE Drury Illustrations inside by
Nikki McBroom. Furry fun for ages 9-99. "This is the fourth
installment in the Kiwi series. For many reasons, I think it is the
best one yet. First and foremost, it draws upon all the characters
of the previous three books. In this respect it is a real treat for
readers, like me, who have read the previous three books. All your
favorite characters from the series are in this one. Including the
enigmatic Dev, the lovable Inspector Furball, all the catizens from
cat city and the fantastic characters from other realms. Rats,
hamsters, squirrels oh my Secondly, we get to travel to yet another
magical realm with many memorable characters and perhaps the most
formidable and fearsome enemy the catizens have faced thus far in
the series. Even though this makes for a epic ensemble of
characters, for the readers of the series it is less about a huge
cast and more about a rewarding continuation of what is turning
into a saga of Kiwi's magical family, friends and enemies. Lots of
action, mystery, and magic in this book. I sense a shift in the
direction of this series. A shift from cute little standalone books
to a fully coherent young adult epic. A saga with coherent
underlying themes and meaningful character development complete
with deeper back stories for the principal characters. I applaud
the new direction. With this book, Kiwi takes a giant pounce
forward as a literary treasure." - AE Drury "I am a big fan of all
Vickie's books with the Kiwi series being my favorite. In book
four, many of the characters from the other three Kiwi books take
part in the new adventure. Kiwi and the Serpent of the Isle is very
well written and edited and is a delight to read." - Lady Wings
"There is a small but hilarious diversion when Hammy and the other
hamsters go out on a Freedom March, demanding better living
conditions. I thought the reactions of people to talking animals
was really appropriate, and seemed extremely real. As the name of
the book suggests, the gang has to fight against a really powerful
Serpent who of course, has extremely strong magic too. The gang is
helped along the way by a number of small and large creatures. The
big fight sequence in the end is a battle scene where all the
creatures, big and small unite to fight against the powerful and
tainted magic of the Serpent. I just have to say that I loved this
adventure of Kiwi and the gang " - Ritesh Kala
