The Diamond of Darkhold (Books of Ember, Bk 4)

Much better than the previous two books, yet not quite capturing the spirit of the first, I enjoyed the continuing story of Lina and Doon. There leaves little to no room for another sequel, which is probably just as well, as DuPrau has become a little preachy.

Despite the obstacles they face, Lina and Doon persevere and end up the town heroes once again (as expected). There are no surprises here, but if you've finished the first three in the series and you're like me, you need to know how the series wraps up.
