The Search for WondLa

The world is imaginative, the creatures unique, and the story endearing. I did not like the pacing, at the beginning it moved too quickly for me to understand the character motivations. As the story went on, I got a bit more of the depth of the characters, so that was good. I never felt immersed in the world, and I really want that for a fantasy story.

I think the target audience is 8-11, maybe a little precocious to be interested in sci-fi/fantasy. There is no foul language, and the mean characters keep their meanness to generalities, mostly.
