Deltora Quest is a book about 3 people called Lief, Barda and Jasmine who go on an adventure to save Del.
Leif was joined by a guy called Barda who is a friend of his parents and was told to go with him because because they wanted to protect their son. They were given a hand drawn map of the shadowlands of Deltora to guide them . They first went to the forest of silence and met Jasmine, a girl who has lost her mum and lives alone. They face horrifying beasts, monsters, Evil Shadowlords and Evil children along the way.
There are 8 books in the deltora quest series , The Forest of Silence, The lake of tears, The city of rats, The Shifting Sands, The dread mountain, The Maze od the Beast, The vally of lost and Return to del.
The quest they are on is to find The 7 gems of the magic belt of Deltora. They had been stolen by the Evil shadow lord and it was up to Lief to find it. The gems in the magical belt of deltora are: The great Ruby, the golden Topaz, Opal, Lapis Lazuli, Emerald, Diamond, Amethyst. There is a cool thing about the word Deltora cause D is for Diamond, E is for Emerald, L is for Lapis Lazuli, T is for Topaz, O is for Opal, R is for Ruby, And A is for Amystest. The word Deltora is created of two places Del and Tora. Each Stone has a power which helps in certain ways. The Topaz, symebel of Faith, It has the power to connect to the spirit world, The ruby, has the power to change colour when there is danger and and cures snake bites, The Opal is the gem of hope, The Emerald, Stone of truth, The lapis lazuli is a heavenly stone, The diamond will cast loneliness and sadness if you get in with greed or trick. and gives coarange and strength. The Amyest Calms and soothes. With all the gems together it will cast power enough to defeat your enemy.
My Favourite book was The Valley Of The Lost. The series does not end with Lief defeating the Shadow lord, In fact Lief never even Meets him through the whole series. But Lief finds his real parents.
There is also the 2nd deltora series which continues there adventure, Its called Deltora Quest 2 and their is the 3rd Deltora series too, its called Deltora Quest 3.
The author is Emily Rodda. She also wrote: The key to Rondo, The the wizard of Rondo,The battle for rondo, The Golden Gate, The Silver gate, Rowan of Rin, The land of Dragons, The Deltora quest of Monsters, The Ultimate Deltora Quiz book.
