City of the Beasts Isabel Allende Margaret Sayers Peden Books

Allende is definitely my favorite author. I actually purchased "City of Beasts" by accident. While browsing through the Amazon Kindle book store on my android I saw "City of Beasts" and accidently hit the "buy" tab. I figured that if I accidently purchased an Allende book, it couldn't be a bad thing. I decided to begin reading the book and found that I could not put it down. This is usually the case with the Allende books I read. Her story and descriptions of the Amazon jungle and the people on the journey to this jungle were captivating. I don't want to give much away, but her story is beautifully written with meaningful purpose, a potent story line, and colorful characters.

City of the Beasts Isabel Allende Margaret Sayers Peden Books Reviews

this is one of the best books ive read and had the pleasure of sharing with my 10 yr old daughter, she loves how the book makes her imagine what the author is narrating
Honestly, I don't know where I was when this trilogy was published! It's one of the best books I've read! I couldn't put it down. I read it as soon as I woke up & when I went to sleep. Isabelle Allende is a really good author. I look forward to reading the rest of her books. 💙💙💙
Hard to believe this was my first Allende book. I can see what all the hype is about. Her prose style is enchanting, just like the tales she spun in this Fantasy thriller
I love this author and this work is special since it is the first of a trilogy for young readers. Two young people find themselves captives of an indigenous tribe near the River, and become the tribe's bridge to dealing with encroaching business concerns. Their presence in the area is with an expedition seeking a creature similar to the yeti.
Allende never disappoints in transporting the reader into the worlds she creates. At each turn of the page, I was with Kate, Nadia, and Alexander. I could smell the beast and see the every step of their journey; I watched the People of the Mist fade away!
This is the first of Isabel Allende's trilogy... for young people and adults. written in her great literary style it is full of vivid images, great travel information, and delightful characters ranging from an elderly anthropologist to her young teen grandson and young female from the .

I suppose somewhere in here might be the heavy religious tones of Narnia or Philip Pullman (if so I missed them). Beasts and its sequels are simply delightful imaginative tales... a bit like Hudson's,Green Mansions, seldom read today. this is nature fantasy, not technology stuff.
This would be a good family read choice suitable for good readers of about a 6th grade reading level or a good parent read aloud book for poorer readers or a "you read a chapter, I read a chapter" bed time reading. It is a great introduction to a good writer with outstanding adults books. Once I read one I needed all three and bought all three for adults sons for Christmas. Great price at buying all three together in paperback.
Captivating read which is educational for its investigation into indigenous
lifestyles as compared to the 'modern' societies which support avarice and
destruction of forests and rivers. The focus on developing spiritual strengths
is admirable in a world where such is often denied.
