Cameron Battle and the Hidden Kingdoms by Jamar J. Perry
4.0
This is was just so good and most importantly very easy to read. I read the whole book in about 3 hours and I am ready for the next book now. I cannot wait to see what Zion, Aliyah and Cameron will get up to in the next book.
Cameron Battle our titular main character is still grieving the loss of his parents (i.e., he knows that his parents despaired), so one day when he decides to go to the attic where is grandmother has hidden away The Book of Chidani, which happens to be a magical book that is handed down in the family. Just has Cameron and his friends start to question the strange occurrences around them, a portal opens and suck them in.
The softly land into an entirely new world hidden away and frozen in time to protect its habitants. This is where Cameron learns about his parents and the power that his mother held before she was killed. In this world, the Queen is trying to hold onto power even when her sister is doing everything in her power to take over. Even learning to fight and becoming the book (the passage way of power) would not save Cameron and his friends. They have to go on an adventure to find the three powerful artefacts that would help them stop Amina. This leads them to fighting old gods, flying on gryphons, hanging lucidly in the past and in the future.
It was a whole as ride and I really enjoyed it. I just loved the culture oozing from each page of the book. As a Nigerian, I just felt so much pride being able to imagine and relate to the characters!
Thanks to #pridebooktours for making this book available to me.
