THIS book is so cool it is almost scary! I LOVE IT everyone should read it it is inspiring to me!

why i like to read this book is because I think it would be a cool book to i have read all the other ones well listened to them and i loved it.

A terrible misfortune has washed upon the fairy-tale world, and only Conner's short stories can save them. Alex and Conner go on a thrilling adventure while travelling through Conner's stories using the portal potion, and recruiting characters for the army. They even go into an unexpectedly creepy tale, written by one of their classmates. A fantastic story filled with pirates, robots, mummies, and even zombies, there are enough twists and turns to make your heart pound. Grade A.

I think this book was my favorite from the whole series. I really loved the way the author explained Conner's short stories and how it was related to his life and his friends. When they realized how much it was related to his life it was really nice. The Ziblings short story he wrote felt as if it was his story not just a story he wrote about someone else. It was an amazing book that made me feel really happy! I recommend it!

This is probably my favorite book in the whole series! I especially loved the beginning. You know when they met the pirates. There is so much suspense in the book that I just want to keep reading!

This is my favorite book of the whole series, so much action in the book!!

This book is an amazing fifth book! Instead of going to the original "Land of Stories", We travel into Connor's, the unsung hero, writing. we see how alike some of the characters in his writing are to people in The Land of Stories. I ask you to read this!!!!

It is cool how in this book it goes back and fourth from when Conner is older and younger. This is the last book, and I was so sad when it ended.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and i've read the whole seires
