I was eagerly awaiting this, the third instalment of the Philippa Fisher series, and it was well worth the wait. We catch up with Philippa, Robyn and Daisy again, and this time we get a real glimpse into what happens at ATC. I love the way Kessler develops the characters and the story zips along with great suspense and action from start to finish. With a touch of time travel thrown in for good measure, I really thought this was one of her best yet!
The previous review to this mentions that the reader didn't "get it" because they didn't know what was going on as they hadn't read the previous two Philippa Fisher books, thats sort of understandable, but I would say if you're going to read a series book, start at the beginning!!!!!!!

Young Readers who love fairies will probably be pretty enthused by this offering by Liz Kessler it's got adventure, it's got magic and it has a time scale that should the quest be unfulfilled the world is at stake. Unfortunately as an initiate to this series I felt locked out in the cold as I didn't understand the driving forces behind the characters involved and whilst it was interesting, there just wasn't enough hooks to keep me glued to the final page which left this title one that was read over numerous sittings rather than over one or two. A great shame but it might be worth noting but start with this from the beginning in order to give it a fair crack of the whip.

You too can be a fairy God sister
18 Oct 2010
Format:Hardcover
When I first read that Philippa was going to Above the Clouds in this book I thought maybe Fairy Godmother training might of been her reward for saving her best friend Daisy in the second book of the trilogy. Turn out to be a even better story for the most part. I read the book in a single day.
Hundred of years ago Fairies and humans were best friends. Over time humans turn away from magic and focus on science (forgetting that Fairies were more than fairy tales.) Now with all of fairy kind threatened Head Command of Above the Cloud sets up a series of tests to find out how strong the friendship between Daisy and Philippa is. Tests that results in Philippa going to Above The Clouds headquarters and pretending to be a fairy so she isn't discovered as a human. If the tests are concluded to the praise of the high command the two two will be given an assignment together that could be the only way to keep the link between their worlds from closing forever. All our favorite characters from the first two books are brought fact in this thrilling tale of how magical friend ship truly is.
The only thing I didn't like about the book was around the ending. I had hope for Philippa to be given a chance to become a Fairy Godmother herself rather than Daisy's choice to help Amber. As you'll read for yourself Daisy's future fate is sort of left unanswered. Reader isn't 100% sure where she'll end up.

Great Read: Once Again

Format:Paperback
A dash of adventure for the young reader is opened up here with Liz Kessler's brilliant and captivating writing style once again. Wonderf when they will start producing movies from these? Could easily go that way - was like when I read the Hunger Games a few years back, it made sense.
Liz Kessler books are a sure hit for the young, confident, reader. We (my familty) have many of her books, and will keep them coming.
What wonderful literature.
