I felt like all of the books I have previously posted all had some aspect of romance. I happen to love a bit of romance but for those who are opposed to romance I thought I would write a review on these books. I like these books despite the lack of romance. These would be great books for middle school boys. There are fun adventures in every book that are not gory.
Background: Alex Taylor stumbles upon a sign in a bookstore window that reads "Adventurers Wanted. Apply inside". Curious Alex goes inside to see what the sign was about. This simple inquiry leads Alex to an entirely different world filled with mystical characters. Alex must find his courage to help this new found world and his new found friends.Characters: Alex is the main character who starts as a normal boy who feels alone. As he goes through the books Alex becomes courageous and selfless. These adventures help Alex learn many skills (fighting and even a little magic) but also how to be a better person. He is a great role model for anyone to strive after.
In each book there is a different set of fun characters to accompany Alex on his journeys. These characters are loyal to Alex and each help him in their own way. Even though there are many characters, they each have their own personalities and are very fun to read about.Appropriateness: This book is very fun and there are no real concerns regarding this area. Alex does go on adventures and has fights along the way but they are not gory at all. I feel like these books would be fun for anyone in middle school or up.
