I love these novels, but the last book is missing pages. I'll be reading along, and then notice that a page is unattainable. I've found three so far. Anyone else having this problem?

The book has been terribly enjoyable, but somewhere in the second chapter of the third book it suddenly stopped working. I have tried contacting Google 3 times and had no response. Save your energy and get Kindle instead.

Great series. Love the way it presents religion and the thoughts it provokes. Quite the opposite of Narnia. Wonderful characters. Just don't expect it to end with happily ever after.
