The Lost Rainforest: Mez's Magic Zusammenfassung

The Lost Rainforest: Mez's Magic Eliot Schrefer

THE LION KING meets WINGS OF FIRE in this new middle grade animal fantasy series set in the rainforest from two-time National Book Award finalist and New York Times bestselling author Eliot Schrefer. The first book is about a young panther as she and her fellow shadowwalkers discover their magical abilities and race to protect the jungle from those who would harm it.

The Lion King meets Wings of Fire in the magical rainforest kingdom of Caldera in this new middle grade animal fantasy series from New York Times bestselling author and National Book Award finalist Eliot Schrefer.

Caldera has forever been divided into those animals who walk by night and those who walk by day. Nightwalker panthers, like young Mez and her beloved sister, have always feared daywalkers as creatures of myth and legend. Until the eclipse.

Now Mez has discovered that she can cross the Veil and enter the daylight world. Her magical power has unknown depths, but she must rush to discover it after a mysterious stranger arrives at her family's den, bearing warnings of a reawakened evil.

Saving Caldera means Mez must leave her sister behind and unite an unlikely group of animal friends to unravel an ancient mystery and protect their rainforest home.

The Lost Rainforest: Mez's Magic Bewertungen

The Lost Rainforest feels unlike anything I've read. Eliot Schrefer has mined the richness and depths of his setting to find a deeper magic, immersing us in a world that is at once complex, dangerous, beautiful, and ultimately demanding of our protection. A thrilling start to an exceptional new series. -- Soman Chainani, New York Times bestselling author of the School for Good and Evil series
While the story is pure fast-paced fantasy, the underlying issues are real. Ignorance among the species, racism, and intolerance of differences are rampant. An author's note highlights the beauty and importance of the rainforest. Magic with depth in this new series stunner. -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Just right for middle grade readers who want an engrossing fantasy adventure. -- School Library Journal
With a memorable, quick-bantering cast, this kickoff to the Lost Rainforest series, a playful departure from Schrefer's ape novels, brings fresh perspective to the magical animal subgenre. And, despite the fantasy setup, readers will come away learning quite a bit about this ecosystem and its inhabitants. -- Publishers Weekly
Mez's Magic is packed with as many jokes as fast-paced fight scenes. And Schrefer has created a stock of memorable characters-including Gogi, a monkey with self-esteem issues; Rumi, a delightfully urbane tree frog; and a manic, pixie-dream bat named Lima. -- New York Times Book Review
