A fantastic end to a wonderfully original trilogy that deserves to be better known.This book was a lovely final installment in the Wildwood trilogy. I thoroughly enjoyed all three books, and I feel that Colin Meloy did a fantastic job. If you are looking for a whimsical middle grade fantasy series I would recommend these. They aren't short books but so enjoyable. The illustrations are also fantastic.
Part of the charm of this series is the sprawling nature of the story. The plot is expansive, with far-flung roots that tap as much action and detail as possible. The world Meloy builds is rich, but the minutiae is excessive at times. Meloy's voice is lyrical and full of whimsy (of course it is), but I couldn't fully enjoy it when he kept pulling me out of the story to explain that Prue used a particular idiom because her dad used to say it on camping trips, or to check on a random owl's midlife
The first book in this series, Wildwood, was actually pretty good; it kept me hooked with all the battles and discoveries. The second one, Under Wildwood, bored me to death. It kinda just drrraaaggggggeedd along, and it was never really interesting, and i only read it because it was a sequel and i always finish a series once i start no matter what. This addition to the series was only slightly more entertaining. So in short, Prue goes back to Wildwood For "urgent business" . she needs to reunite

Her sole claim to fame till now is having
I loved everything about this series. What a wild adventure it was reading the three books. I was totally hooked from start to finish. I'm looking forward to the next offering from this author, and will definitely need to check out the music from his band, The Decemberists.
Overall, a very satisfying conclusion to the Wildwood trilogy. "Under Wildwood" set up many new characters and story-arcs, and Meloy manages to weave them all towards a conclusion without confusing the reader. There is an extremely well-paced build-up and climax to the Elsie/Rachel conflict with the Industrial Titans about halfway through the book, and I do wish the overall conclusion to the book was as exciting. Nevertheless, this book is just as funny and smoothly written as the first two, and
