Deltora Quest

Emily Rodda

When the Shadow Lord threatens to overrun Deltora, the kingdom’s only hope lies in recovering the seven magical gems once set into the legendary Belt of Deltora. Sixteen-year-old Lief leaves the safety of home to join Barda, a seasoned former palace guard, on a dangerous journey guided by little more than a hand-drawn map. Their first destination is the sinister Forests of Silence, where hidden dangers test their courage, loyalty, and resolve. Blending fast-paced adventure, fantasy, and themes of friendship and resistance, this novel launches an epic quest through a richly imagined world.
