Blogger's Note
Yay! So I have finally posted the first ever series edition book review!!! I'm sooo proud (wow, she's a total egomaniac). This is a great series suitable for kids starting from age 8+ and above. It's typical, but in a nice way. Though it's predictable, it's the perfect choice if you have nothing to read. Personally, I love the seventh book: The Valley of the Lost. At my school lobrary, there is book 3, 4, 7, 8 (if I'm not mistaken). A 4/5 for this. It rocks! (wow, she's soo childish).
Synopsis
The books are centered around the magical land of Deltora, particularly the major cities: Del, Raladin, Hira, Rithmere, Dread Mountain (in fact not a city but a mountain), Tora, and Jaliad. Lief, who has set out to complete his father's quest to save Deltora. Joining Lief is an ex-palace guard Barda. Along the way they meet with Jasmine: a wild child of the Forests of Silence, who has black hair and green eyes. She can speak to trees and has two pets: a blackbird named Kree and a small, gray, furry creature called Filli. Their quest is to find the seven gems of the fabled Belt of Deltora: topaz, ruby, opal, lapis lazuli, emerald, amethyst, and diamond. Each gem is hidden in a dangerous location around Deltora and the three friends must face all sorts of perils to reach them. Once the Belt is complete the evil tyranny of the Shadow Lord will end and Deltora's one sole heir will take his/her rightful place on the throne.
