CSFF: Landon Snow & The Island of Arcanum by R.K. Mortenson

Song Stuck on the Brain: Love from Disney's Robin Hood

CSFF Blog Tour: Landon Snow and The Island of Arcanum by R.K. Mortenson


About the Book:

Landon Snow is back in his third adventure into the realm of Wonderwood. This time, Landon Snow finds himself on a wild adventure at sea. When a huge, ark-like vessel emerges, Landon - and his sisters - join a quest to find the Island of Arcanum, where the animals of Wonderwood are imprisoned. With the help of his old friends-a horse named Melech, elfish valley folk, a girl named Ditty, and the poet/prophet Vates-Landon seeks to unlock the island's dark secrets and escape with the animals. But he must battle storms and the villainous Arcans-pirates who hoard animals as treasure. Will Landon ever make it back to Wonderwood alive?

About the Author:

R.K. is the author of the Landon Snow series. The adventures of Landon Snow are meaningful as they are entertaining and magical. Mortenson currently serves as a Navy chaplain in Florida.

My Thoughts:

I'm still reading it, so I'll have to post them in a few days when I've finished, but I find the book idea very intriguing. In the meantime, be sure to check out my fellow CSFF Blog Tour members sites for their thoughts and reviews.

Nice job, April. You must have received your copy of the book through the Alliance. It's cool that Island will get so much attention!

Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I did get it through the Alliance, but they aren't hosting it until the end of November, so I'm saving my review until then. I think it will be a good read, even though I haven't read the first two yet. I'm hoping to get my nieces and nephews turned on to the series as well. I'm always looking for something that will hook them on reading just a little more than the video games.
