1) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. I have nothing other to say than that the product that I got was in perfect condition and exactly what I ordered. I cannot ask for anything more.¤

2) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. This is the 6th book in the Keys to the Kingdom series by Garth Nix. This was a good book but the ending left me puzzled. I listened to this on audio book and the quality of the audio book was excellent.

Arthur and Suzy venture into Superior Saturday´s realm to try and retrieve the 6th part of the Will. Arthur is finding it harder and harder to stay human, and is really starting to struggle with the part of himself that is turning into something else. The lower house is being destroyed by Nothing and things are looking bleak on all sides.

This was a well written book. I like how Arthur is having to fight with himself as he begins to become something more than (or less than) human. Suzy is by far what makes this book; she has been my favorite character throughout the series. Saturday´s part of the house is very interesting and creative. The book is very fast-paced and up until the end I was thoroughly enjoying this book.

All of the sudden the book ends. It ends seriously in the middle of a fight scene with a number of horrible things in the middle of happening. I though that maybe the audio book was broken into two parts and I missed downloading the other part. I went to audible.com and checked. Nope I had the whole book. I was convinced that I had lost part of the audio book somewhere, that´s how open the ending was. I finally checked people´s reviews on Amazon and found that many other people were also dismayed at the ending.

If you haven´t read this book yet, I would strongly suggest you wait until the next book comes out and read the two books together. This really is almost only half a book!

Besides the ending, it was wonderful!¤

3) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. Exactly what is expected of an audiobook. Just as well-read as the previous books in the series. I can´t wait until Lord Sunday (the last book in the series).¤

4) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. Each book in this series has been something of a surprise. Each one occurs in a different "part" of "The House of the Architect". Up to now, only a tag at the end of the previous volume has given the reader any hint as to the location in the House of the next volume´s story.

But Saturday has been hinted at as the master intriguer against Arthur, the Rightful Heir to the Kingdom. She has masterminded the demise of many, including former Key Holders, and nearly Arthur himself on multiple occasions, sacrificing Saturday´s Dusk in the second book to set up one such attempt. She was prefigured as a mover and shaker before we knew even the names of most of the other six Days. So I expected the real fireworks to fly in this volume, even though there would clearly be one more to go - Sunday. True, the reasons behind Saturday´s destruction of others are made clear, even to her destruction of whole portions of the House. Still, the level of circles within circles found in the earlier volumes is missing here. Once Arthur manages to get to the Upper House, it seems only a matter of time before he subdues Superior Saturday, clearly the most powerful of his enemies.

Yes, there is a cliffhanger at the end, and some uncertainty about the subduing. And we are certainly left with mystery regarding Lord Sunday. I just felt disappointed at the denouement, but perhaps the last volume will show that I was mistaken, and Saturday still has a role.

I can´t wait, which shows that I still enjoyed the whole series to date!¤

5) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. An very unhappy. have not recieved the book nor any reply from seller I would not have even given it one star but has to give it a rating to continue¤

6) Hardcover Book Superior Saturday (The Keys To The Kingdom) by Scholastic Press. The secret of his own identity.

The identity of The Architect.

The complete Will of the House.

The fulfillment of his fate.

Arthur Penhaligon is getting closer and closer to these things... but not without risks, conflict, and adventure.
