My review is on a book by the name. [The E&N Escape]. written by P.N Holland.On his book series I have read the third book only and it doesn't leave the reader wondering what is missing as it makes sense although you'd find that you didn't read the first two parts of the book series.to briefly summarize the third book,it starts off with the writer P.N Holland taking the role of the protagonist as Billy who is a young man who goes to an island on a train with his younger sister Sarah who seems like a phone addicted girl and Billy's friend Ricky who is as equally excited about this train trip.Initially the trip was so that the guys, Billy and Ricky go do a school research project on the island and the younger sister Sarah went to play a soccer game for a community team.After meeting a stranger along their way everything springs out of plan and they are involved in something they never knew existed.along the chapters they meet wizards,witches,aliens and mystical creatures that turn their unplanned adventure upside down with awe, magic and danger.they are tasked to deal with dangerous wizard who threatens the future and also their lives.

The book is drawing,in a sense that every chapter leaves you wondering what is coming next and it makes your imagination active with all the descriptions of the setting and everyone involved in the book,plus the fact that the book is written according to the modern time and involve our time and the future makes it a bit realistic .my most favorite part would be towards the end of the book (chapter 30) where Leylandria joins the two boys and Sarah in fighting the bad wizard Mohryia, who tries to control the future because their powers combined brings more excitement as the war wages on.

What I would say that I did not like about this book is how extremely lengthy a certain topic or scenario would be per book chapter because on some of the chapters they would tell you information that would be too obvious and the fact that the future travel seems prolonged too as they jump from portal to portal a lot.the other thing is how the antagonist disappeared because it leaves you with a unsettling question of whether he died or fled and then the book ends without a straight and assuring point.

On an overall book rating I would give this book a 3 out of 4,this rating is because of the parts I didn't quite understand and didn't like like how it ended .The book is really sci-fi as intended by N.P Holland so to a person who likes books that make you ponder and excite your imagination it's the great opportunity.I think the book was well edited because I didn't encounter any errors while reading.
