Mia and the Lightcasters: Umbra Tales 1 (The Umbra Tales)

Product Information

Die Geschichte beginnt mit Mia und ihrem besten Freund Miles, mit dem sie einen Ausflug unternimmt und dabei auf ein Umbra mit roten Augen trifft. Ein Hauptteil besteht darin, wie die Kinder auf der Flucht von der roten Elite sind, aber hier gab es so wenig Abwechslung. I really felt the sense of threat and tension throughout as I learned more about this terrifying King who is responsible for the perpetual Darkness, and who has willing and loyal followers prepared to carry out his wishes. Das Jugendbuch „Die Chroniken von Lunis – Wächterin des Lichts“ stammt aus der Feder von Janelle McCurdy.

Dies merkt man auch am Schreibstil, dieser ist recht leicht gehalten, die Sätze sind einfach gehalten und auch die Dialoge sind einfach. I have not come across many other children's books that explore fantasy worlds this imaginatively and can draw a reader in to them.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. This is an action-packed, unputdownable epic fantasy adventure which took me on a heart-racing quest through an unforgettable world brimming with danger and darkness, friendship and family, courage and hope. Genre classifications are arbitrary and, especially in the speculative fiction regime, largely meaningless. A major thing I'd attribute to that fact is that the story was rather predictable for me - might not be the case when you're a kid of ten.

When Nubis is attacked by the Reaper King’s new force, the inhabitants, including Mia’s parents, are locked in cages. Mia konnte mich als Charakter nicht wirklich überzeugen, gerade wie sie am Anfang des Buches dargestellt wird und am Ende passt nicht zusammen. A brilliantly immersive and action packed magical adventure filled with well developed characters, exciting world building and heaps of imagination.It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I really appreciated how smoothly and professionally you ran everything. I loved the Umbra, they were such a fantastic idea, and Mia's umbra, Lux and Nox were especially brilliant and very sassy, bringing a bit of a light humour to a book with a darker story. Having read the book, I now think this book could be enjoyed with an adult by children aged 8 and up. Yourself and Bob are much cherished in our booky world and I personally really appreciate everything that you do. Ich konnte dieses Buch nur schwer wieder aus der Hand legen, da ich nur zu gerne wissen wollte, wie die Handlung weitergeht.

Ross Welford introduces Time Travelling with a Tortoise, the sequel to Time Travelling with a Hamster, and a whole new time travel adventure! I haven't charted out my visits for the summer term, but I'm sure there are several in the south) and thanks so much for being so fantastic! In her free time, you can find her holed up in her room, gaming and watching anime (some of her favorites being Inuyasha, Dragon Ball Z, and Death Note), or attending numerous comic cons and gaming events. I picked up this book to read with my eight year old not having any expectations one way or the other.

The Lightcasters is intended to be the first book of a series, Umbra Tales, and I certainly intend to read the rest. Es passt zwar irgendwie zur Story, dass der Leser zusammen mit der Protagonistin erst die Magie entdecken muss und diese erst kennen lernen muss. The journey upon which Mia has embarked will challenge her deeply, but will also bring out the very best in her and her closest friends and family.
