The Lost City of Faar by D.J. MacHaleMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
Each book of this series takes place on a different world. Each world has some sort of crisis, and the outcome determines the fate of the universe. This should be pretty intense. Unfortunately, it's boring.
As with the first book, I saw so much unrealized potential. The world that this takes place in should be fascinating. I wanted to love it. But the journal format forces the main character's voice on everything, and I find him juvenile and tedious. Events that should be edge-of-your seat exciting are told through this voice, so there's too much distance between you and the action.
Also the adults are my favorite characters, which doesn't seem right. (view spoiler)
