Quest to the Uncharted Lands (Dragonfly #3), 336 pages. Delacorte (Random), 2017. $17.
Content: G.
The first expedition
to the Uncharted Lands is ready to take off.
Stella’s parents are in that group and she is determined not to be left
behind – even if she has to stowaway. That
part of the plan was simple, but nothing after that is. Not only is there another stowaway – a boy,
Cyrus, who is from the Uncharted Lands,
but another stowaway is determined to sabotage the entire expedition. Stella and Cyrus will have to work together is
anyone is going to make it home alive.
Johnson was very
clever with this series. While all of
the books are set in the same universe and each story builds logically on the
others, the time gaps between books leave room for new characters in each book,
making the story the focus, not the continuing personalities. Just enough action without being battle
heavy.
