The Land of Nezza


A book review by Dan S.
            The Sands of Nezza is the fourth book of the adventurers wanted series, and also as excellent as the others. The other books, Slathbog’s gold, The Horn of Moran, and Albrek’s Tomb are also excellent and if you like one, you definitely will like the rest. A nod and a wink to classic series like Perceus Jackson and Heroes of Olympus. Definitely an excellent series to read, and especially good for those fantasy liker’s that don’t like stuff like unicorns. If I had to rate it from one to ten, I’d rate it a fifteen, because it is that good.  Especially good for those people who like fast a paced plot instead of two pages about breakfast.
             Alex has moved to one of the known lands of the adventuring world, and has a new horse, replacing the one that he lost. The adventure, begins for him by a letter arriving by bottle-necked geeb (the normal messenger in the adventuring world) that his friend, Skeld, had been captured in Nezza. Alex thus goes out to Nezza, and discovers many things, one being he is unable to exit the land because someone put up a magical barrier. Thus he keeps going forward, invisibly.
            Later in the story, they are free, but have to secure the prince’s throne, for a impostor has claimed the throne. The prince, later in the story, is fought against, because people believed he was dead, and fought against those whom that were claimed to have slain him. The prince however, upon showing himself to the army, added to his forces doubly. In the end, his throne was secured, and war ended across the land.

            Again, this is a great book for those who like fantasy with a strong, fast paced plot, and a storyline that constantly changes. This is also a great book for those who are 10+ years of age, and is a very great book. Many surprises occur, and where least expected. So much happens in this book, and it doesn’t drag on and on. It’s a very fast paced book, and gives classic series another view.
