The Lost City of Faar

Pendragon, Book 2

De: D. J. MacHale

Narrado por: William Dufris

Fourteen-year-old Bobby Pendragon is not like other boys his age. His uncle Press is a Traveler, and, as Bobby has learned, that means Uncle Press is responsible, through his journeys, for solving interdimensional conflict wherever he encounters it. His mission is nothing less than to save the universe from ultimate evil. And he's taking Bobby along for the ride.

Fresh from his first adventure on Denduron, Bobby finds himself in the territory of Cloral, a vast world that is entirely covered by water. Cloral is nearing a disaster of huge proportions. Reading the journals Bobby sends home, his friends learn that the desperate citizens of the endangered floating cities are on the brink of war.

Can Bobby - suburban basketball star and all-around nice guy - help rid the area of marauders, and locate the legendary lost land of Faar, which may hold the key to Cloral's survival?

always good

loved reading these as a young adult and still love to this day decades later

Can’t wait to re-read the rest of this series

I once read this series in middle school and now I’m reading it again as an adult. The audio files are nice because it makes it easy to get the story on the go but I also have the physical copy of the whole series. Now that I’m a little older (22) this series is just as exciting and captivating. I remember the 3rd book being my favorite as I only read the first 8 as a younger cat. To say the least I can’t wait to finish the series but at the same time I dread it because i want the sense of adventure. So if anyone reads this review and has any suggestions for a series similar to this I’d love to hear from you.

number 2!

in my opinion he keeps it going. I really enjoyed this story. it is a retelling of one you might have heard before, but in a creative way, and is mentioned in the book as well.

Loved!

If you could sum up The Lost City of Faar in three words, what would they be?

I loved this story. I read the book via ebook a few years ago but the audiobook recharged my love for the book again! 5 STARS!

Who was your favorite character and why?

Loor was the absolute best character , ever!

What about William Dufris’s performance did you like?

Witty and youthful.

Amazing Adventure!

I can’t enough of these adventures! So creative, full of drama and thrills! Good for all ages, very entertaining. I can’t wait to start the next book in this series!

Horrible performance.

the series is good I loved it as a kid and decided for nostalgia sake to listen to it now. unfortunately the performance given makes the main character and mark sound pathetic and whiny. I have never heard a worse performance and I am truly amazed the narrator was allowed into the booth. I truly hope I never run across any other words spoken by this man as he makes me sick.

Going back through these books keeps me sane at work

I read these books as they came out when I was in high school. I loved every minute of them. Performance-wise, the crackling audio from the underwater segments really hurt my ears. It seemed to be much louder than any of the other segments of the reading. Other than that, I thoroughly enjoyed everything else.

Great Book series

Love this series. The story will keep you hooked til the end. Give the series a read or listen.

Love Book 2

Such and colorful and technology world. Loved the new characters and seeing the main character grow into his destiny.

Sniggers, Spinney-Do, Hobey-ho, Lets Go.

To quote Bobby Pendragon, "I love that guy." That guy being Spader. I love his energy, I love his zest for life, and I love his flaws, because we all have them.

This second book in the Pendragon series sets the stage for events and technology found in just about every book that follows. The relationship between Bobby and Spader is key to the series, and the reason it is rocky is just as key. It is an action packed, fun underwater romp until Saint Dane manages to poison the planet's food suply, putting Cloral civilization in the ballance. All that stands between the forces of evil and the teritories salvation is Bobby, Spader, Uncle Press and the fabled city of Farr.

I think is says a great deal about Bobby that he adopted Spader's patented phrase,

It is that way it was meant to be.

"Hobey-ho."
