Kendra Kandlestar and the Door to Unger

Description:

Everyone knows that the creatures of the outside world are forbidden to enter the Land of Een. That’s why young Kendra Kandlestar is so surprised when a giant Unger arrives in the middle of the night to deliver a cryptic message: If she can find the mysterious Door to Unger, she will be able to unlock the truth about her long-lost family. Kendra soon finds herself on an epic adventure in the wilds of the outside world. Along the way, she will encounter the King of the Dwarves, a magic-peddling Faun, and all manner of strange creature. And, once again, she will cross paths with the young Unger called Trooogul, and Kendra will have to play a dangerous game of trust. Does Trooogul intend to help Kendra find the Door to Unger, or will he lead her across the wretched Greeven Wastes, only to betray her to the Unger Elders so that she can be cast into the maze of monsters? There’s only one way to find out. Slip inside the Door to Unger yourself, and follow Kendra as she embarks on an adventure that will change everything she has come to believe about the Ungers—and herself.
