Fun Twist on MLP Books - The Villians series

Reviewed in the United States on April 2, 2016

Verified Purchase

Bought for my grandson, who loves My Little Pony. He is an aspiring children's author, even though still only 11 himself. Boys who love MLP are called Brony's, he has learned, and even grown men like MLP.

These are a twist on the Friendship is Magic books and are stories following the "villians" of the MLP series. My grandson finds them quite as entertaining as the MLP books themselves.

These books are excellently done and he loves them. He has them on his Kindle App on his Ipad Mini, so great color display for reading pleasure.

Honestly I loved the way they made sombra backstory its so well written and it made me feel more for the king or monsters I do reccomend reading it if you want probably the most official sombra backstory

This book showed many interesting bits about Sombra that we didn't know. I never would have guessed his backstory, and it makes him less of a villain. But, the book is rather short, and "disappointing" was the word I would use to describe the end. I would love a new book where Sombra comes back and is reformed, only to betray the ponies and become evil again. I recommend this to bronies who focus on villains.

King Sombra

I had always wondered if Sombra was always evil, and I finally have my answer. The ending was really cool. Are all the villains going to make a comeback? Queen Chrysalis apparently is! If you like MLP, this is a must read!

Sombra has a sad backstory. Wish he hadn't succumbed to evil but that's how it goes. I hope he can be turned back to the light at some point.

This is amazing the drama! The sorrow! The pain! It really shows another side of Sombra. In this book he was more gentle. I wonder if the pieces of princess Amore created Cadence they do look alike.... -Rosemary, age 8

Super Awesome! My kids love these books. Thank you! What I think you should improve on is making your books longer, if you could.
