Last Post About Pendragon: Book 10!
It took a little bit longer than I thought it would, but I finally managed to finish the book. I really don't want to give away big things about the book so I am going to summarize the series and basically relate the series to the hero cycle. One thing that I like about this series is that in the end (SPOILER ALERT) the travelers win the war and Bobby goes back to normal life with Courtney. I really like how the series starts with how Bobby and Courtney kiss for the first time right before Bobby finds out that he is a traveler; and it ends with Bobby and Courtney sitting together and she starts to read to him the journals that he had written over the years that he had been gone. This about the book is similar to the hero's return home in the hero cycle. Another aspect that the Pendragon series can relate to is the idea of a sidekick. There are a bunch of people that can be sen as sidekicks in the series; these people include all nine other travelers, Mark and Courtney. And finally, I feel that the Pendragon series relates well to the idea of a mentor for the main character. Bobbies mentor has been hisUncle Press. Uncle Press was the one that told Bobby he was a traveler and showed Bobby how to handle saving whole worlds. Uncle Press also came back as a spirit during this last book to teach Bobby about Solara.
