Moon and Madly:I liked discovering more about Jack and getting some of the background information behind Marmalade. They are fun characters and the interpretation of Jack is very good. I'm not completely familiar with the "normal" telling of Jack and the Beanstalk, but I have a feeling I would like this version better.Once Beauty Twice Beast:Beauty and the Beast has never been a favorite of mine, but I LOVE the cyclical story in this book. It kept me guessing throughout the entire prequel and left me wanting more. Cameron Jace is an incredible storyteller. I really felt as if I were in the castle with "Beauty" and "Beast" which is really why I love his books so much. Although still not my absolute favorite prequel (what can I say? I love the Queen of Sorrow too much), it definitely ranks highly.Rumpelstein:While I liked the story, it isn't a favorite of mine. I liked that there were many characters who appeared in this story. It was a good way to combine the various characters I've met in the previous prequels and how much I love them all. The introduction of new characters is interesting and I look forward to seeing their stories develop.Jawigi:Jawigi is the prequel I have been looking forward to the most of all the new ones, and I was not disappointed! It started off a little slower than the others, but the pace picked up quickly and I had to tell myself to slow down because I was reading so quickly. And the ending! *sigh*I am getting more and more excited for the full series to come out. Looking forward to the last few prequels and all the mysteries to come!
