In the third book in World of Grrym, Allira and her brother Steven had taken in on themselves to return to Grrym, in a last-ditch effort to save Quibbitt and rescue their grandfather. Soon, Alisha is driving her grandfather’s car across Grrym, being pursued by an evil troll, and encountering all sorts of problems, as they try to find the Great Spirit, Quon’deesh. Only Quon’deesh, a mystical entity, is powerful enough to stop the evil Morgassa. But Allira and Steven are running out of time to stop Morgassa’s plans to ruin Quibbitt City.

With beautiful black and white illustrations, and a rich purple hardcover binding, this is both visually a pleasing offering and an action-packed read. Whilst its sequential nature means it is most likely to appeal to those who have read the first two, front of book summaries of the two previous instalments provide an introduction to those new to the series, as well as jogging the memories of those who have read them.
