Review of
Legend of Otherland
by Chuck Kelly

I was told by the publisher that I would love this story, and she was right. I loved this tale. The characters were so kid-friendly and the story remarkable. I was taken into a world of fantasy with just a touch of science fiction.

The story surrounds Bunker, a 13-year-old Prince who lives on Otherland. One day he notices on his computer screen that the Evil Pencinell has returned, looking for people to snatch away into the darkness. Bunker tells his dad, The King, and learns about the legend of Otherland.

Bunker decides he is going to save the kingdom from the Evil Pencinell and goes away for the first time in his life. This, of course, happens after the Evil Pencinell has already captured a young girl, Gittel. Gittel is a brave girl and she won’t let the mean witch scare her. But just when things look bad for her, Bunker shows up.

Gittel and Bunker have an adventure that all kids would love to have. Fighting off the bad guys, being swallowed by a big sea monster and flying in the air.

Kids from age eight and up will highly enjoy this story and the beautiful illustrations included. This is a great book for the younger crowd to introduce to the sci-fi fantasy world. There are a lot of fun conflicts, great characters, and fantastic adventures.
