After a handshake with an employee of his dad's, Cody finds he can talk to cats, and when he goes snooping in his grandmother's apartment, things get even weirder. Fortunately, his cousin Alex lends him her brownie, Angus, and together they journey to the Enchanted Realm in the company of a troll to right an old wrong and rescue a human prince from a glass coffin in Troll Mountain.

Filled with the same excellent storytelling, pacing, characterization, and creativity as the other Enchanted Files books. I especially enjoyed the crossover aspect of Alex and Angus, though Angus' accent wasn't nearly as good in this audiobook. ( )

A great book full of fantasy, friends and adventure. The story is told through journaling, texts, folklore and letters. I cannot wait to read the rest of the series. I would recommend to reluctant readers. ( )

Told from different points of view (including Ned the troll and sixth-grader Cody), this is a sweet and magical story. It's broken up nicely with different kinds of text ("official" information on trolls, Ned's diary, notes from Cody's teachers, Cody's biography project notebook and his "life log," emails, texts, messages tied to ravens, etc.)—so much fun and plenty of kid humor! It's suspenseful but not too scary for younger readers, which is refreshing. There are plenty of readers who want action and fantasy but don't want to have nightmares after reading.

Trolled is the third in "The Enchanted Files" series. There are connections to Cursed and Hatched, but each title can also stand on its own. As a bonus, there are subtle messages about bullying and kindness woven throughout. I'd recommend it for grades 3 through 8. ( )
