Well, just got some time aside to finally start reading through these.
So, anyone read them, and what's your thoughts on them? (just read the RD one).
You know, thinking about it, its not a GREAT book, but it would have been a good substitute for Mare do well as far as teaching Dash a lesson about humility and letting her ego get the better of her. while it was really simple and not what I'd call "great" (The rainbow rocks book for example was actually pretty entertaining, while this one wasn't really anything special), it got the message across while reinforcing the friendship message with her realizing that trying to be a hero and do things on your own just for your own ego is a bad idea.
Actually, on that note, its kind of funny how this one's message more or less points out a big Problem with
TCE's premise for twilight XD
Still think the villain as rather poor though; he kind of just shakes his hoof angrily and runs away at the end. Plus his plan was kind of self defeating: laughing at dash dying in Quicksand (which she almost did) pretty much ruins his entire method of gaining entrance :/
I mean, sure its fun to be a dick I guess, but dude, long term planning here. That's like Dead zone with Garlic trying to kill piccollo before using the dragon balls. :/
Not sure how I feel about all the magic they were having zebras due though; Like, its getting a bit too much into Unicorn territory here :/
