5 Worlds Book 5: The Emerald Gate

Story and drawings are as enthralling as in the 4 previous volumes.The fiction draws on present concerns of today's world, but without ever falling into cliché.Let's hope the team of authors will come together again, be it for a sequel or a completely different story!

I'm writing this from my dad's computer. I am in middle school, and I would just like to say that this book thoroughly exceeded my expectations. The first book in this series, The Sand Warrior, was the first graphic novel I had ever read. I have loved every moment of this magical journey. And this...It headed in so many directions I would have never expected. And THE ENDING. It tore my soul into shreds. I was almost about to CRY, and then I saw the final page. This book was a masterpiece with the most gorgeously bittersweet conclusion I have ever seen. No, scratch that-it wasn't a conclusion. It was an invitation to a new beginning.

My 9 year old son loves these books! He was anxiously awaiting this book for months. He only wishes there were more books in the series.

I got into this series after hearing it cited as an inspiration for the Netflix She-Ra and Princesses of Power series (which I loved). Looking at it you can certainly spot the shared DNA; bright alien worlds, a variety of lovable and quirky characters, and intricate plotting filled with warm and wonderful moments. I can't sing the 5 Worlds praises enough - fun for adult and children, easy to follow and engrossing to read. Pick it up, you won't regret it.

My 5yo adores the 5Worlds series, and they were the first graphic novels that I enjoyed reading out loud. Very nice pacing.
