Summary: Harpy High
Comment: We purchased this book for our teenage son in an airport on a trip to Aruba. By Aruba we all three had read it! It is fast moving, enough plot to keep an adult reader entertained, but most of all it was hillarous. Enjoy

Summary: If Only My High School Had Been Like This!
Comment: Continuing the story begun in Esther Friesner's _Gnome Man's Land_, _Harpy High_ is another twisted, warped, and thoroughly comic treat for the lover of humorous fantasy. Timothy Desmond is back with a new cast of characters as well as our old favorites, set to battle Baba--pardon, *Bambi*--Yaga for the sake of all humanity. Oh, and to keep her from producing her own line of fitness videos, too.
It's possible to view these books as simple (if delightful) brain candy, but they're really much more than that: _Harpy High_ is educational in the sense that it can introduce the reader to several figures out of myth and literature; sure, Friesner's take on them might be a bit... unusual, but there's something to be said for a story that whets the curiousity. Further, there's a valuable lesson to be learned from every book in this series--and this one is no exception.
In short, Esther Friesner has concocted a bizarre and wonderful mix of comedy, myth, and meaning in this book and its fellow trilogy-members, _Gnome Man's Land_ and _Unicorn U._ All three are most definitely worth reading--and buying--if you can find them.
