Stravaganza 1st Book


Stravaganza City Of Masks
Author: Mary Hoffman
Genre: Fantasy/ Adventure/Time and Place Travelling
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Part of: Stravaganza Series


The first book of the series; after reading the 4th book, City of Secrets, I have decided to borrow more Stravaganza stories from the library. Of course it is to satisfy my curiosity about how time and space traveling had begun.
Although the origin of Stravagating is a bit odd for me, it is still a reason nonetheless, albeit a creative one. I do find the story quick and captivating, and the author had managed to capture a beautiful place, you can see that she had the place well thought out.
The ending was interesting, still so even though I had known about the ending from the 4th book, which make this series an entertaining read for everyone, not just young adults.
However, the lessons to be derived from the story is not clear to me, probably more of an entertaining purpose only.
