L. L. Reynolds's "Rafe Ryder and the Well of Wisdom" reminds me a bit of "Alice in Wonderland", where twelve-year-old Rafe is transported to Mystfira, a world of leprechauns, fairies and other fantasy creatures, and must search for his way home, which isn't going to be easy. It is well-written, the characters are interesting, and I enjoyed the author's use of humour, suspense, etc.
I like the cover for this book, it fits the story well and is quite eye-catching. It also appears to be the first in a series, so I am looking forward to the release of further volumes by the author. Though it is geared towards middle-graders, I believe this series would appeal to fantasy lovers of all ages.
I received my copy of this book from a Goodreads giveaway and I appreciate the opportunity to read and review it.
