In the endless corridors and dark corners of her eccentric house, Liz learns that the world has even more in store for her than even she imagined. She finds a secret that will send her on a colossal adventure where she will be required to risk everything including her life.Liz's quest takes her across the colorful backdrop of Duura, a land of lost tribes, ugly sticks, bed snakes, tidal sand, bouncing bartles, assassins, evil armies, fortified cities and a personable blue war elephant. It is a place where danger lies around every corner and in every stranger's smile. Finding the way into Duura was difficult but finding the way home may be impossible.

What a fun read! It is a perfect adventure story, fast moving with enough twists and turns to keep even the most reluctant reader glued to it. Liz and her friends really came to life and I feel like I made some new friends. I, along with other avid readers in my family, can't wait for the sequel (The Laughing Samurai). A terrific start to what looks to be a fantastic series.
