I do not give five stars lightly. But, Dude. This one is wow, even more so when I read the author's notes in the back- Cordova created this entire world-the religion, the rituals, the mythology etc. Holy crap, it's awesome.
I am always left with how the book made me feel and my brain trying to compare it to something I have already read. Here goes. It's an adventure story of the highest order with a story so believable that you live there too. What it consistently reminded me of was The Wizard of Oz and I mean this as the highest compliment. I think it was the wonder of the setting and the creatures and heroes fighting a really big bad that is actually big and bad. Alex, in fact, had more on the line than Dorothy.
Labyrinth Lost is awesome. I'm already plotting a Deathday craft program for the library teens in my head.
Sequel please.
