When your child is ready to graduate from simple chapter books to more complex, high stakes adventures, this series provides the perfect bridge.

The fourth installment in the Deltora Quest series finds our heroes in a desolate wasteland, testing their survival skills and their trust in one another. It is an ideal pick for children who enjoy solving puzzles alongside characters and who are drawn to classic tales of bravery against overwhelming odds. Parents will appreciate the clear moral compass of the protagonists and the fast paced storytelling that keeps even reluctant readers engaged. While there is fantasy peril and some monstrous creatures, the focus remains firmly on the trio using their wits and friendship to overcome obstacles.
