My sisters and I would have come to blows over that pretty quick.Īs I said, I am not the target audience. I didn’t understand the grandfather’s role in all of it, or why siblings Emily and Navin never thought to fight over why Emily always gets to wear the magical amulet. I didn’t understand what the amulet was, or why it had the power to talk and electrocute(?) monsters. Maybe if I read further into the series, I would find the plot depth I felt lacking. The illustrations are pretty, and the little pink mechanical rabbit was cute, I guess. I expected more from a book that my students love so dearly. For me, reading it today, The Stonekeeper was just okay. REVIEW OF THE STONEKEEPERĪt age 40, I am not the target audience for this book.

After finding a magical amulet, Emily and Navin discover their new home is infested with fantasy creatures, one of which eats their mother (she’s still alive inside the monster).
