Pandemonium by Chris Wooding – ADVISALBE

Wooding, Chris and Illustrated by Diaz, Cassandra Pandemonium 178 pgs. GRAPHIX, 2012. $9.99. (Language-G Violence-G; Sexual Content-G).
Seifer has a great life in this small town, and is much loved as a captain of Skullball –where he flies and throws his way to victory. He has always wanted to leave home, but his opportunity comes unexpectedly –when he is kidnapped to replace the missing Prince of the Darkling Realm. He is now pretending to be Prince Talon, and when its time for war, Seifer knows he must do his best.
I think both older elementary students as well as middle school students will enjoy this creative fantasy. The older students will love the plot, while the younger students will enjoy the bits of slapdash. The book really grew on me and by the end I really enjoyed it, and hope a second book comes out soon. The art wasn’t top notch, but still creative and fun.
