Lief, Barda and their unruly new companion, Jasmine, are on a perilous quest to find the seven gems stolen from the magic Belt of Deltora. The golden topaz has already been found.

Love the books, but hate the music at the end of each chapter.
I love the books and I enjoyed how Ron Haddrick read them. The only thing I didn't like was the music at the end of each chapter. I don't mind music at the beginning or end of a book, but having it all throughout it just disrupts the flow of the story. It wouldn't be so bad if it was good music, something short that matches the feel of the story. The music is different almost every time so there's no feel of it being theme music for the book. It's usually very weird and more annoying than pleasant to listen to. Sometimes it started playing before the chapter was finished so it was hard to hear the last sentence or two that Ron Haddrick was reading. Other times it played for too long, especially when the chapter ended in a cliff hanger and you really wanted to hear what happened next. I listened to the whole first series of Deltora Quest with my family and we all were annoyed by the music throughout the books. It's really too bad because it deters us from wanting to listen to them and I actually really enjoyed the audio books otherwise. Hopefully they fix this because these really are great books.

A Good Start
A straight forward story where the good must defeat an evil foe, and although this novel starts a series, there is a satisfying conclusion to an immediate threat. Young readers would find the idea of discovering different magical stones exciting, and would hope that the young Leif would be able to make his journey through the Silent Forest safely. The novel could make for a great book talk about the power of patience and using one’s wits instead of striking out without thinking first.
