The Griffin Moonstone: A Fantasy Adventure Series: Book 3 by VJ Garske
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I finished The Griffin Moonstone.
(4 and a half stars is my rating)

{Spoiler alert}

A nice intro for poor Bandit. I couldn’t find any errors in Chapter 1, it was meaningful and well written. Her writing has improved since the first two books: showing great character, and stronger verbs and details.
Nice scenery changes from a train in the second novel to a boat in the third. This adds variety to the book.
I liked the way Ranger deals with danger from Rusty Newton in Chapter 2, knowing he wouldn’t be hurt, not needing to dodge the fireballs. I liked the descriptions in the book, some relatable, and some unique such as in Chapter 6, it describes a knife that shimmered like fish scales, it was well done.
It’s nice that Ezra is still alive.
In Chapter 10 introducing Bonesy the Kindly Ghost, she did a marvelous job showing character for the ghost and Jesse.
This story was written well. She's also a good poet. The descriptions are short but make up for that with figures of speech and meaningful details.
She has a very good sense of humor which most writers don’t. She did a great job showing the action of tug-of-war.
I liked the trial at the end, very well done. I stayed up all night reading and enjoyed the characters returning from the first book, like the goats. When The elf appeared at the very end it felt magical like a movie. I also liked her play on words.
