This is a well written YA fantasy that hooks you within the first few pages. I found myself easily visualising the events and places in this book and that is something I love when reading. In the early sections of "Beyond Fear", the author depicts the plight of a bullied teen and peer group pressure superbly and I found these scenes moving.

Once the reader embarks on the fantasy section of the book the story gallops along even more. The story offers action, adventure, romance and humour. The cast of characters, the creatures and the construction of the world of Kaimeara are diverse and entertaining from start to finish.

Thoroughly enjoyable!
