Zal And Zara And The Great Race of Azamed by Kit Downes
The Blurb On The Back:
It’s time for the Great Race of Azamed – the most famous magic carpet race in the world. Zal and Zara believe that only an enchanted Rainbow Carpet could possibly steal the prize, but perhaps such a thing is just the stuff of stories … The race is on for the pair to discover the magic behind the legends and weave the winning carpet, but will their enemy Haragan beat them to their dream?
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
This just didn’t have the spark or va-va-voom to make it a classic and the depiction of religious beliefs and arranged marriages between children is faintly disturbing. The book is the first of a series, but I’m not in a rush to carry on with it.
