A STRATEGIC PLAN WAS IN PLACE…
POWERFUL ALLIANCES WERE FORMED…
BUT NOTHING COULD STOP THE GREAT WAR.
After Tim Charnal was captured by Allen Chan and the ruthless iron-masked guards, Sophia Freeman has no choice but to follow their orders and meet them in the Forbidden Land to free their Master, Tombermon, an ancient tree giant. The release of great evil leads to broken promises, countless sacrifices, and an inevitable war. As the islanders face a losing battle, an unexpected machine army comes to their rescue. But is it enough to stop the enemy and their threatening new era of darkness once and for all?
This is a well structured story for middle schoolers. The main character is fun to read about and there is enough of a mystery to solve that keeps the plot unpredictable, and the fantasy part is not too unbelievable.
