Podkin, Pook, and Paz survived the battle against the Gorm, and are now seemingly safe in Dark Hollow, a hidden warren. Curiosity, boredom, and a feeling of uselessness get the better of Podkin, and he stumbles upon another magical gift, one that can help them defeat the Gorm instead of hiding from them. Such is the opening premise of The Gift Of Dark Hollow, the second book in the Longburrow series by Kieran Larwood.

A follow-up to Podkin One-Ear, this new novel is adorable, and the middle school set will get caught up in the second adventure of Podkin and his siblings, which is even better than the first. It is really exciting as we get the feeling that the Bard is involved in this world, yet we can wait for a slow reveal.

This is a great series to start your adolescents on the love road to reading!
