Bone, Vol. 5: Rock Jaw, Master of the Eastern Border (v. 5)
In this fifth volume of the BONE saga, Fone and Smiley Bone strike out into the wilderness to return a lost rat creature cub to the mountains. It doesn’t take long before they run smack into Rock Jaw, “Master of the Eastern Border,” an enormous mountain lion with a none-too-friendly disposition. Life gets even more complicated when they befriend a group of baby animals who are being orphaned by rat creature attacks. Everything comes to a head in an earth-shattering clash between Rock Jaw and Kingdok, the leader of the rat creatures.

4 Stars Bone Review
My 8-year-old son is crazy about these books. I probably should have read them myself first, but I didn’t. He did point out a couple swear words in them. I chose to let him read them anyway. –Kelly
5 Stars Happy with this purchase.
My son collects these books so I’m sure he will be happy when he gets this at Christmas.
5 Stars Book
This was purchased for a our local library. Can’t comment on the book itself, as I haven’t read it. But shipping was fast and book was in the condition promised.
5 Stars Surprising!
The book did not end the way I expected. A very good addition to the rest of the Bone story.
5 Stars The perfect mix of humor, fantasy and drama
I remember reading “Bone” as it came out when I was in college and falling in love with Jeff Smith’s characterization and sense of wonder. Now I am reading the books again to my five-year-old and I get the pleasure of seeing this fantastic world for the first time again, through her eyes. I can;t recommend “Bone” highly enough. It’s a rare book that transcends genre, medium and age.
