Book Reviews of The Ropemaker
Book Review: A Great Book
Summary: 4 Stars
I highly recommend this book. Once I started reading this book I was unable to put it down. This book centers on several characters Tilja the granddaughter of Meena, Tahl the grandson of Alnor, along with Meena and Alnor. And their quest to save their valley, which had been, tucked away form the outside world for many generations. This valley had been kept safe through powerful magic, which was now starting to disappear. The task to leave the valley and search for a magician powerful enough to save them falls to Tilja, Tahl, Meena and Alnor. As they travel on their journey Tilja learns that she posses the powers to save her valley with the help of the Ropemaker. The Ropemaker is the only magician in the empire who is able to reverse the evils of the empire and with Tilja's help save her valley. I found the way, which the story was written to be captivating. I recommend this book for any teenage student male or female. The story is on of courage and discovery something that I feel appeals to both male and female students.
