While on vacation, Emily Windsnap finds herself swept up in an ancient prophecy as the New York Times best-selling series continues. Emily is headed to a tropical island for a relaxing vacation with friends and family. And this time, Emily promises her best friend, Shona, there will be absolutely no adventure — just plenty of fun. But somehow excitement always seems to find Emily, and before she knows it, she ends up on the other side of a powerful waterfall on a forgotten island no one else can get to. Well, no one that isn’t a half-mer like Emily and her boyfriend, Aaron. The people who live on the island believe in a prophecy that foretells how they can be saved from an imminent, devastating earthquake — and this prophecy seems to revolve around Emily and Aaron, as well as a mysterious, mythic giant. Will they be able to find the giant — and fulfill the prophecy — before it’s too late?Size:5.125 x 7.625 inches Review: Great book! Exactly what you'd expect. - My 10-year-old daughter absolutely loves this series Review: Quick summary! **ALERT!!** Ending included!! - Really good! Anyway so in this book Millie suggests they go on a healing trip to some wonderful island. Before that Shona makes Emily promise NO ADVENTURE. Then they go on this boat ride to see the Falls of the forgotten island and Em sees eyes behind the fall and to go behind the falls is impossible. Then they go again except Em and Shona (who comes tagging along by the boat) actually go behind the fall and hear voices. Then like on their HUNDRETH visit (exaggeration, I wish not) they get to meet the peeps behind the falls and hear this prophecy with a giant that saves them all. Em tells Aaron and Shona but Shona gets mad and they end up in a fight.Then Em and Aaron meet this guy named Jeras the father of Aurora, Neptune's dead wife. Aaron gets all worked up at that part. They hear the TRUE story and then find out Jeras, wife used to have prophecy powers before dying. And then they find out he could be big and powerful if he shook Neptune's hand. So, a main part of the prophecy was that there would be an earthquake. So during the earthquake Shona leads Neptune to Jeras, which was part of the prophecy.( BTW, Em and Shona also make up at this part and be besties again.) And they realized, A GIANT IS BIG AND POWERFUL!!! JERAS SHAKE HIS HAND NOW BEFORE WE ALL DIE!!!!!! And they shake hands. Then Jeras lies by his wifes grave and peacefully dies.

Great Book... But A Slight Mistake
I love the book! I've loved all the books in the series! They all have a great plot and capture my attention. I would have given it five stars but I saw a grammar mistake on page 11. On this page, Emily said, "Did something happened to Dad?" This is grammatically incorrect. It should be, "Did something happen to Dad?" You see, the past tense is included in the word, "did" so we don't need a past tense, "happened." It's kind of like a double negative. Otherwise, the book was great!

Seriously well writren
An excellent read for a girl in Year 5+ and really well written. Liz Kessler's book is the seventh in the series - but worry not - you can dip in and out of the series in any order without a problem. Imaginative language, strong and simple characters, places that are as magical as they are real, this is one seriously well written book. Highly recommended

Charming and enjoyable
This is a lovely little pre-teens book, one of a consistently enjoyable series. It's a delightful, girly tale, very well delivered with a disarming charm- gentle entertainment guaranteed.
