Summary: Her Best Yet
Review: The story starts when Rowan's sister gets kidnapped by a flying lizard right after Jonn and Jiller get married. The people of the village are so upset that the Travelers, a Maris who is staying in Rin, and Rowan set up a daring plan to rescue her from the monster.
The people of Rin somehow know that the lizard was from the dangerous land of the Zebak, who have been the enemies of the folk for centuries. They go to Sheba, the wise woman, for help but she only gives them a small package.
The rescue party of Rowan, Zeel, Allun the Baker, and Perlain the Maris decide that Perlain will get a boat and Zeel and the other traveler Forerunners will fly Rowan and Allun to the ocean on their great kites.
The boat ride is long and hard to the land of the Zebak, but when they arrive at the Wastelands they find that stepping on the plain clay will make you fall into the tunnels of the Ishkin, terribe creatures who are used to scare Zebak children and can easily kill people and animals. On this terrible journey, Zeel begins to remember her past as a Zebak. Here they open Sheba's package and find that inside are a few sticks that can tell them how to deal with the hardships that come their way.
Finally, they near a city, but some how they fall into a maze, where they hide in a water hole to escape soliders.
What happens next, i can not tell, because it would spoil this great story that is worth reading!!

Summary: A Very Well Written Book
Review: When a humungus beast sent by the Zebak steals Rowans' little sister, Rowan, fe eling responsible, most go after it and get his sister back. Excellently written, with an emotional crisis as well- one of the Travelers, Zebak by birth, has returned with Rowan to help find his little sister. What will she do when she gets to Zebak?
This book was excellent. I really like the way Emily Rodda wrote it, and the way she portrayed the ishkin.
