review 1: In this book Geth and Clover are getting bored with the predictability of life since Foo has been restored. They decide to find adventure to try and spice up life . They go looking through caves and end up running for their lives at the hands of an Onus. while running they fall into a chasm and meet a girl named Eve. She talks about a land beyond the borders of Foo. Suddenly they are knocked out by something and wake up in a jail cell. After talking with a pessimistic prisoner across the way, they escape into the unknown land of Zendor. From there they travel through what appears to be barren nothingness and meet the stone holders, people who live underground and farm at night. No one wants to help them out. They eventually make it to the palace and take on Payt, the dic... moretator of this land. I really liked this book. It was an interesting concept and had a lot of twists and turns that were unexpected. The book kept me entertained. I would recommend this book to anyone that has ever read the Foo series. Anyone who hasn't wouldn't get it.
review 2: When I was a kid, growing, I often wondered what lay beyond the borders of my small town. Don't get me wrong, I loved the place. The people were the salt of the earth and I felt safe to walk or ride my bike just about anywhere. I made some of my most meaningful friendships there.However, like Geth, I couldn't shrug the feeling that there was so much more out there to explore. And indeed, there has been! Of course, the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Geth and Clover wander to the land of Zendor and find themselves in a wasteland, ruled by an evil tyrant named Payt. Geth's curiosity and desire to follow fate's promptings bring hope to the hopeless and a fulfillment of prophecy.One of my favorite lines in the story is, "What we want is often buried in what we fear." Many of the residents of Zendor fear freedom. It is safer to stay complacent and full rather than take a risk in fulfilling a dream and be hungry. I hope Geth is able to galvanize Zendor's residents and help them realize they must stand for something.I enjoyed Obert's latest offering. I often wonder what happens to characters once a series like Leven Thumps ends. Surely, they must be up to something. It was fun to find out what Geth and Clover are doing and I'll be interested to see what happens next! less
