XD <br /><br />I've preordered the UK pb edition (since that's what I bought BETWEEN SHADES in). I've read more than a few really positive reviews. What's good is that all those people were apprehensive going into it, same as you, because of what it had to live up to. So excited!<br /><br />The shades of green reminds me of this book with something like Dragonslayer in the title? And another one by Fforde, or maybe that's the same book. Haha. I'd look it up but I'm not bothered.
