A review by cynicaltrilobite
The Valley of the Lost by Emily Rodda

5.0

Hell yeah! That's what I'm talking about! This is such a good series and I gotta give it to 10 year old Ethan, he had impeccable taste in child/teen fantasy. This book follows our trio of heroes as they explore the dreaded Valley of the Lost.

The residents of the valley are sad, dreary, and caught between life and death. Presiding over these throngs of the not dead is the Guardian and his demented pets. I loved the Guardian as an antagonist and his game was really fun to play along with.

Gotta say though, idk that I trust this Dain guy. He sure didn't react well to the magic of Tora.
