This is a story about a boy named Lief who is the new king of Deltora. So far he has collected 3 of the seven gems that he needs to defeat the evil Shadow Lord. In this book, Lief enters a tournament but he doesn’t know what will happen, other than the fact that they get money. What really happens is the winner has to go to the shifting sands to face a monster that has the 4th gem. Will he win the tournament so he can have a chance the get the 4th gem? You must read this book to find out. I think this was a great book because there were some unexpected twists. It would appeal to boys more than girls.
