I absolutely loved this book and can't wait for the next one. This is a perfect fantasy quest that brought me back to my childhood. The land, the political conflict, the humor, the friendships, diversity, and love. I need this made into a Jim Henson style movie with muppets as the forest monsters.

I usually don't give 5 stars unless a book makes me cry. But the way I devoured this book and the imagery that my imagination played while reading this was so incredibly entertaining combined with all the physical outbursts I had, the laughter, the cheers, the fear, the gasps. This was just everything.
