This review is from: Isle of the Dead (Dragons of Deltora) (Mass Market Paperback)

Lief, Jasmine, and Barda have now destroyed two of the Four Sisters. Now they must continue their dangerous quest as they search for the third sister, the Sister of the West, who lies hidden somewhere on the dangerous and deserted Isle of the Dead. Their journey there may be one of their most dangerous and horrifying adventures yet. Lief and Barda are separated from Jasmine during a terrible storm at sea and find themselves aboard a mysterious, apparently deserted ship called The Lady Luck, where many terrifying dangers lurk and they must solve a mystery from years past in order to escape.

Emily Rodda has written another thrilling fantasy adventure, and readers who loved the previous Deltora books won't want to miss this third exciting adventure in the Dragons of Deltora quartet, and will eagerly await the conclusion in the next book.
