The Ship is finally built - it took some work, including some magical comprehension! - and most of Castle Glower's family, and their gryphons, go out on a short testing trip around the bay...but the Ship has other plans. Another new world, a new set of adventures, a new member of the family (that's pretty clear, right off), and safely home again. And a couple new pets, too. There could be another series, set later, covering some of the consequences of this ending - but this makes a nice, solid ending to the current series. I guess we don't get a Sunday or Monday...

The 5th book. DO read them in order, they make much more sense. They are wonderful children's books, well written and fresh new stories. I have both the Kindle and Audible versions of these books.
