This is the third book in a five book series. It continues the story of a young Hawaiian Menehune boy and some of his exotic friends he makes while coming of age and growing in his magical abilities. It also covers teachers from all over the world who help him learn what he needs to do to fulfill his destiny. This book has something for everyone in the family. However, it was written for the 10 to 16 year old audience. There are 44 interactive hyperlinks, which bring up graphics, maps, photographs and explanations of items in the storyline. The character graphics are owned and commissioned by the author from the folks at Intense Media. This book is a major departure from the first offerings, in that while it carries the storyline of the first two books, it has been presented in a chapter format that is more suited to slightly advanced readers. The book conveys several messages of tolerance, peaceful resolution to problems and the ability to persevere in the face of hardship. It is sure to become a classic.
I found this book for my niece and we absolutely loved it! The author Kupuna Kane really takes you into the
magical world of Keoni. With vivid imagery and unexpected plot twists I was on the edge of my seat the whole way
through, I started out planning to read only the first chapter or so... At first I wanted to know that it was a positive and uplifting book as I was going to give it as a gift.
However I was soon captivated and found myself reading it in one sitting! It's so nice to find a series for young
adults that has a strong moral compass. The main character Keoni is inspirational and heroic. This is a great
book for all ages, I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new series to read.
