The Prophet of Yonwood by Jeanne DuPrau

Today is Wednesday (already!) so that means I’m posting over at We Heart Reading.  This time my review is of The Prophet of Yonwood by Jeanne DuPrau, which is the prequel to her other two books in the City of Ember series.  This is the perfect example of how not to do a prequel in my books.

If you’re sick of reading Jeanne DuPrau book reviews on my off days, check out The Big Idea post by author Jim C. Hines.  It’s a book I’m adding to my reading list and I think a lot of you book lovers out there will enjoy it.  If not, then John Scalzi’s Big Idea posts are always great and you can flip through the archives to find some amazing fantasy and sci-fi novels.  It’s how I discovered Feed by Mira Grant.
