Chronicle In Favor Of Books A World Without Heroes (Beyonders #1)
Jason Walker has often wished his life could be a bit less predictable--until a routine day at the zoo ends with Jason suddenly transporting from the hippo tank to a place unlike anything he's ever seen. In the past, the people of Lyrian welcomed visitors from the Beyond, but attitudes have changed since the wizard emperor Maldor rose to power. The brave resistors who opposed the emperor have been bought off or broken, leaving a realm where fear and suspicion prevail.In his search for a way home, Jason meets Rachel, who was also mysteriously drawn to Lyrian from our world. With the help of a few scattered rebels, Jason and Rachel become entangled in a quest to piece together the word of power that can destroy the emperor, and learn that their best hope to find a way home will be to save this world without heroes.

Exciting, clever, and perfectly suited for the twelve-year old boy in your home, A World Without Heroes is the first of three in Brandon Mull's Beyonder series. The Goodreads blurb for A World Without Heroes is pretty blase and underwhelming, summarizing a plot that sounds not unlike a dozen other adolescent books. A child or teen, at a crossroads in life, stumbles upon a portal or passageway to another world. Adventures ensue. A way home is found, the child older and wiser. For example, tryI LOVED Fablehaven, so was excited to see a new Brandon Mull book.But I was disappointed that this was no Fablehaven. The book redeems itself in the end, and I am genuinely looking forward to a sequel, but my goodness the first third of this book is as bad as I've ever read. Besides a choppy pace and a character we know almost nothing about (and therefore care nothing about), the editor let sentences like, "He extended his hand probingly" and "The sand stopped his submergence." get by. Is
Thirteen year old Jason had a very unexciting life. He was just like any other teenager. He went to school and worked part-time at a zoo after school. One day, Jason thought he heard music coming from the hippos mouth (yes you read it right, music from a hippos mouth). When he leaned over the railing to investigate he thought the music was coming from INSIDE the hippo. He leaned too much and fell into the hippos mouth which wasnt really any hippos mouth but a doorway to the world of Lyrian.

My Video Review:https://youtu.be/WPFQmWqWAy82019: I'm leaving my rating at four stars from when I originally read it in 2013. I'm happy I decided my first novel of 2019 would be a reread of a series I really enjoy. I Plan to film a review of this when I get back home in a couple of weeks, so I'll post it here when all of that is done. I still really enjoyed this. I think it being his first written novel (not first published) peaks through in a couple of places, but I love Lyrian the most out of
A World Without Heroes is a 'grew on me' book. Initially, I was not sure I liked the tone at all. At first, I thought it would read more like a Disney film than a weighty young adult fantasy novel with potential. As I listened, my feelings started to change. The idea is not new, but the in- between steps of the journey proved interesting. While I am not extensively well read, not in the least, in epic fantasy, I appreciate the quest as a foundation for a story. Fairy tales (which I am very
Final rating: 4.25/5 starsFinal rating - for the whole series: 4.75/5 stars I loved it. I finished it in a day. Great worldbuilding, fantastic villain, and a world with no heroes. Literally.Basically, as the name says, there is only one ruler, he's a mage, the last one, and he conquered everything. Instead of killing his enemies, he makes examples of them, or spares them in blissful prison, or he throws them into the cruel ones, or he ask them to join him. No killing unless necessary. No maps,
