Rating: High Five

Who I'd Recommend to: Fans of the Land of Stories and other exciting adventure books.

Synopsis (from Amazon): Allan is on top of his game, until an accident leaves him paralyzed from the waist down. His guardian now, uncle Rubic, takes Allan on a stream fishing trip to try and bring joy back into his world, but a flash flood washes the two down the mountain. Allan loses his wheelchair and must crawl uphill to get help. He’s alone, but Rubic’s life is on the line. As Allan struggles, he’s somehow taken to another world, hunted and captured. Will he find his way home? Who in this strange world will help him?

Even when he feels the most isolated, there are creatures with heart. Allan is lifted out of the ashes of his thoughts and he decides to fight, not only for his survival, but for Rubic’s and for millions of aliens he’s only just met.

Thoughts: I loved this book because it was amazingly creative. I loved how the author,  Anderson Atlas, created a situation that forced the main character into many schemes in this book. I also loved how he created so many incredible characters that all are different but all connect in the end. Another thing I loved about Strange Lands is that its story line is like a bunch of tree branches all over the place, but the branches all are connected to the same trunk. Overall, I loved this amazing and  creative book and I think it should get a high five.

Disclosure: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own.
