I read part of it because my uncle gave me book 3 because he found it in a pile of used books. I got books 1 and 2 from the public library so I could read book 3 without being lost. I read a couple more from the library, but I realized that in every book the characters were fighting an ultimate evil that turned out to be only the penultimate evil, a sort of reverse nesting doll of evil. The plot was stretched as thin as plastic wrap. I did not finish the series.
