Hunters of the Lost City by Kali Wallace
adventurous
mysterious
medium-paced
4.0
Hunters of the Lost City is a well-imagined and fun Middle Grade Fantasy. This is a tad descriptive in places but for the age range this is written for, I think it's needed. It's also a little slower paced as you are drawn into the story and characters, but I didn't see this as a deterrent.
The world building in this one is fantastic and has everything I love in a magical fantasy. I love the characters and the dynamic between Octavia and Sima. The journey they begin, and end with, is a wonderful example of how friendship is born...thru trust, loyalty and truth.
I can see this being a great one for a book discussion in a classroom setting. There isn't anything scary or gory in this story, and I think the kids would have fun with the monsters and the magic.
If you enjoy Middle Grade Fantasy, or just need a change of pace, this is a good one to pick up.
