This review is based on an ARC of The Trebors, which I received courtesy of NetGalley and the publisher (TouchPoint Press).
Fast-paced, action-packed, and family-oriented, The Trebors is a fantastical adventure tale. Right from the get-go, the story blew me away--quite literally! I love how the action immediately grips the reader.
I also quite liked the animal characters. (Though I must say, I have no idea what these Trebors are supposed to be. Monkeys? Monkey-cats? What?) I thought they were both cute and spunky. Do I want one as a pet? Yes, I think I do.
The worldbuilding is great, this universe being entirely different from any I've ever read. The Trebors is entirely fresh and fascinating! The pacing, too, moves at just the right cadence to make the story flow and keep the reader attentive.
Here is a brilliant novel by Caroline C. Barney. I was never into animal adventure books as a child, but I would have gotten a kick out of The Trebors, I know it!
