I really enjoy this series, although this book seemed to be very rushed for some reason. I felt like there was a lot of detail and build up at the beginning to be cut short and left spotty in the second half. still looking forward to reading book 3.

I saw it coming, but it wasn't exactly what I expected. I've decided to recommend this series as a GREAT sci-fi pick for kids. Aliens, technology, biological and botanical stuff. Very cool. I cannot wait to read the last installment. Eva Nine still doesn't disappoint. She learned so much this time, and I love seeing a character grow.
I recently discovered and quickly devoured The Search for Wondla, and had to read A Hero for Wondla right away. The only bad thing I can say is now I have to wait so long for the third book! DiTerlizzi continues the story of Eva Nine as she embarks on a new journey of meeting fellow humans and finding out what happened to Earth. While I was intrigued by the character Eva Nine in the first book, in the second book my love for this character intensified and I feel fully invested in her and Rovee.
I was excited to see the other humans and their city, but found that while that part was interesting, the best part of the story was Eva's development and growth. While The Search for WondLa introduced us to this strange new world and characters, A Hero for WondLa shows the growth and development of a true hero.
DiTerlizzi does a great job of exploring the characters and their environments, and introduces us to some new elements along the way. Once again, the story is accompanied by wonderful illustrations (blue-tinged this time) that help to carry the narrative forward.
A Hero for WondLa definitely answers a lot of questions that were left unanswered in The Search for WondLa, but leaves us with enough mystery and a slight cliffhanger to leave us wanting more. I think that the WondLa books are ones I'll return to again and again in the future, and will recommend them to my friends and family. I can't wait for the next book, and yet at the same time I'm dreading an end to this wonderful series.

Twice I struggled trying to get into this book. I debated whether to continue on. I’m so glad I did, because I finally got sucked in and really enjoyed this second book as much as the first. I’m excited to read the last book! So, if you’re struggling with the beginning of this book and reading reviews wondering if you should keep going - I hope you do! :)

I found this book to really step up the game. Eva’s character gets some development, we get some more characters, and most importantly, more plot!
We even get some world building.
