Magic Lands #1-2

by Robert Stanek

A premium trade paperback edition of the original omnibus! Meet Ray and Tall. Their people spend their entire lives in a floating world. They are born, live, and die in this water-soaked place. Now they must go into the wilds alone and return with one of the great ones to prove themselves and to win the hearts of the girls they love. But their paths are much more challenging than either ever imagines, for on their journeys they will unravel clues to the disappearance of a dear friend, and those clues will lead them to the stone land. Though the stillness of the stone land makes them landsick, they must continue on for they are the one hope of their people against an oppressive ruler.

Reviews

[J.R. Barker · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved the use of language in this book and the descriptions of survival in the two lands. Admittedly I did get a little lost at the beginning when I wasn’t entirely familiar with some of the terms in the way that they were used, but I feel this pulled me further in. For instance the bulls, you don’t get a description of them until further along. Other dangers are also hinted and were not described early on, which means that you, along with the character, are never entirely sure what dangers may be lay lurking around the corner. However the words used; ‘the slither’, ‘the bull,’ ‘the wet’ and ‘the dry’ are all terms that can be easily related to and give freedom to the imagination.
The book in many cases forces you to gain a very different perspective on ownership, the definition of home and the relationship between the land and the people.
The book ended leaving allot of questions unanswered, which is a devilishly easy way to get you to want to buy the next book when it arrives.
Recommended for budding young adventurers.

This book took a bit to get into, with some of the wording used strange, but once the characters have been met, it pulls you in and you care what happens next. I would definitely recommend it.
