It is a great book that ties together many places in Droon and the Upper World as well as many characters that we have come to know. This is I've decided to read The Secrets of Droon series entirely for Christmas since i've been feeling a bit nostalgic.
This is one of the best books of the series in which action, mystery, magic, frienship, love, adventure and more abound in every page. I really loved this book and its happy, heartwarming and magical ending. Everything ends neatly, well almost neatly. Overall the series is great for kids and adults that are kids at heart. It is a long series with many adventures but all well worth it. You meet all kinds of wonderful and interesting characters that you will learn to love, well not all of them.
The characters grow and are developed really well. Its imagination and magic are out of this world. It is an amazingly magical series that I am glad to have read again and experienced its secrets, magic, and wonder.
It does not disappoint at all. I recommend it to any one who has young children and love magic and fantasy. Dec 27, Aliya rated it it was amazing.

Additionally, just before Eric leaves, Thog shows him a strangely blank map to the legendary Seven Cities of Gold, stating that Prince Zorfendorf had collected it before Thog arrived at the library.
Notably, the map has an emblem of a silver tree on it. Eric bumps into Max , who tells the young wizard that he got separated from Julie, Neal, and Princess Keeah. Eric hands Max the Moon Medallion and tells him to hang onto it while he talks to Sparr, then continues to chase after the sorcerer.
When Eric finally catches up to Sparr, the older wizard reveals, through his actions, that he went to Zorfendorf Castle to summon Queen Zara 's stone boat.
Eric allies with him and secretly helps him assemble it. Afterwards, Eric calls Max to him, and Max not only gives the Moon Medallion back, he also brings along a magic chest, in which Keeah, Neal, and Julie are hiding.
There, Gethwing's Hunters attack them. Eric's parents chase after the Hunters, as they have kidnapped Meredith, Eric's old classmate who is also Keeah's aunt, Witch Demither. As Eric's parents direct the party towards Silver Lake's dam's power plant, where Meredith is held, the Hunters make a final attack and smash the dam.
Eric and Keeah hold back the surging water with a wall of magic, while Neal struggles to reassemble the dam. As the water piles higher and higher, Eric mentally contacts Sparr, who snaps out of the reverie he has been in since the start of the book and reins the water back into the lake.
Keeah, Eric, and Max then reassemble the dam in Neal's stead. The party rescue Meredith from the Hunters, and Meredith resumes her old form as Demither. She and Sparr then reveal that they both went to the Upper World to retrieve the Wand of Urik , currently stuck in a time loop. The party dives into Silver Lake, and Eric snatches the wand from its time loop. Nelag reveals that he has received a dream from Queen Zara that tells him to bring her the Wand of Urik immediately.
Nelag, Bludge, and Demither leave, and Keeah shares a few moments with her parents. In Bangledorn Forest, Twee, Woot, Weaf, and Queen Ortha tell the group that the Forest has been invaded by Gethwing's wingwolves , but the Lumpies should arrive shortly to defend the place.
As the party travels deeper into Bangledorn Forest, a great green dragon attacks them, but Kem startles it, and the dragon reveals itself to actually be Jabbo , the diminutive dragon ruler of Doobesh. Jabbo also reports that he has received a dream from Queen Zara.
Zara shows everyone a map of Droon that also contains the Passages, tunnels connecting the various parts of Droon. She claims that Galen, who has been missing for books, is not actually lost and is currently in the Passages, searching for Emperor Ko. The party, now one stronger, head for the Passages, where they find a collection of creatures called mooples and meet Galen and Salamandra.
They move to northern Droon, where they find Ko's body. Salamandra raises Ko from the dead with her time magic, then Galen reveals Ko's shared memory with Gethwing and, indirectly, the location of Gethwing's birthplace and thus his immortality wheel to everyone.
Salamandra then leaves with Ko and Jabbo, making Eric shout that Salamandra has betrayed them. In order to reach Gethwing's wheel on Droon's moon, Parthnoop , the group needs to reach Plud , where Queen Zara's chariot is.
Just before Pasha picks everyone up and drops them off at Plud, Eric pulls out his ancestor's photograph and suddenly realizes where he needs to go to find Urik , the only Son of Zara who is not in the group. While everyone else flails for ideas about how to transport Eric there, the mooples return and suggest using the Passages again.
Eric follows them to the Fifth River and Zara's stone ship, where he hops onto the ship and steers it into a wall of water. The ship explodes at the watery wall, shooting Eric upward into the Upper World and backwards in time. The boy wizard finds himself near his own house, where he sees a golden-haired, blue-clothed child on a silver tree--a younger version of Eric.
Shortly after the three birds Eric saw at Zorfendorf Castle arrive, Urik comes, too. The elderly wizard talks to the younger Eric and gives him the Pearl Sea.
After the younger Eric leaves for home, the older Eric and Urik talk. In the conversation, Urik reveals that he is Eric's great-great-great-grandfather and was the Prince of Stars and that the three birds are Otli, Jotli, and Motli, the Prince of Stars's companions. Urik realizes that he has to help save Droon, so he pulls out one of Salamandra's thorns from one of her time portals and creates another portal to Plud.
Urik and Eric jump in and land in present-day Plud, where they find the rest of the group after fighting through Gethwing's monsters.
After a tearful family reunion Urik has with Zara, Galen, and Sparr, the party runs to Zara's chariot and powers it up. Gethwing and his wingwolves chase the transport all the way to Parthnoop, though. The group reaches the Cave of Night, Gethwing's birthplace and the location of his immortality wheel.
Gethwing also arrives and traps Eric, revealing the bracelet to be a mind control device and that Gethwing distrusted Eric since the beginning of the book. As Gethwing cockily trusts the prophecy and burns himself in the moonlight, Ko arrives with Salamandra, Jabbo, and a suspect-looking collection of goblins. While Ko and Gethwing fight, Eric realizes that the disobedient goblins are actually enchanted Lumpies , meaning that Salamandra never completely betrayed the party after all.
Eric breaks out of Gethwing's mind control and runs for Gethwing's wheel. Gethwing realizes that his precious wheel is slowing down, breaks away from his fight with Ko, and snatches Galen away from the wheel. Max realizes why the wheel is now speeding up, grabs a sword, and pummels Gethwing on the head until the dragon releases Galen. With all seven hands on the wheel as before, the wheel slows to a near-halt, and Gethwing falls unconscious.
Otli, Jotli, and Motli fly in and notify everyone that Gethwing's armies, having noticed that their leader has fallen, have lost heart and are now being trounced by King Zello. Eric calls for mercy, claiming that they " do not kill", and ensures that everyone releases the wheel.
