Beastlands: Race to Frostfall Mountain by Jess French is an exciting children's novel but will be just as enjoyable for adults also.
Beastlands is set on a fictitious island called Ramoa, where the beasts that once roamed have been killed and the wildlife decimated. There are 3 main areas on the island each with their own capital city and distinct enviroment and people.
There are 3 main characters, Kayla is a sky cadet riding a winged beast called a Pangron. Rustus comes from a line of warriors and Alethea is a healer.
These 3 main characters come together by chance and start on a journey which takes them to Frostfall mountain. All going there for their own reasons but discovering they work better as a team.
The novel has a good storyline and is very enjoyable just as a story. However there are undertones about keeping the environment safe and not killing wildlife unnecessarily.
I really enjoyed this novel, the characters and story are well written.
