So entertaining!!!!

Fantastic story from a fabulous series. Can't fault anything. David Tennant is a master performer! His accents are fabulous!!

We have driven from the Eyre Penisnsula to the Gold Coast and back and Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the third has entertained us from our 4 year old, our 9 year old and 12 year old boys to the parents!! Can't recommend it more!!

Sooo good

This book is not as good as the others but is still a fantastic book. My favourite part was in the Meathead Public Library when the hairy scary librarian is fighting Hiccup and Camakazie

LOVE IT!!!

I think the story, the voices and the overall narrative were amazing but there one thing that made me take away a star. At the start of every chapter, music plays and it’s starting to get on my nerves, especially since I have a sleep timer and that music wastes some of my time. However, I still love the story and I listen to it almost every night!

Excellent but the least favourite of the series

We did love this book but it was certainly the least preferred of the series (as declared by my ten and seven year old children). Not quite as adventurous or tense as the other books according to the kids but a must read (of course) for people who love this series. David Tennant can not be faulted. He is absolutely my favourite narrator. Kids agree!
