The Lost Island Of Tamarind (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
I look forward to the sequel.At first, I didn't like Maya --- I still don't, come to think of it. But the adventures quickly overtook her weaknesses and I became interested in the story for the story's sake.The book is large, and often I feel like books this large are simply too long, but the Lost Island wasn't too long at all. I did pick up some rookie mistakes, such as changing perspectives (although who made that rule?!), but overall this is a well written, entertaining book. The lost island of Tamarind was a book my friend recommended to me, she was full of praise but I have to admit that I don’t really see the attraction. This may be because I was a few years above the target audience age.I found it tedious and so cliché it was unbelievable. I was asking myself when it would end.A group of siblings find themselves on an island that’s not on any map; they meet many people on their travels. Sound familiar? Ever heard of Narnia!To be fair to this book, I suppose you could say it was quite unique but surprising? No.The book was written well but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone over 11.
