Vivian LaRue, Nomi's Quest (Harper Festival, 2008)
As I said in my review of The Creeping Danger, this is the Neopets fantasy trilogy for girls. There's still adventure and the like, but it's like the difference between hardboiled and cozy mysteries; this one lacks the same sense of immediate danger. That doesn't mean it's any less exciting; in fact, I liked this one better than I liked The Creeping Danger.
Nomi is a Faerieland faerie, with all that entails, but she has a problem--she has some problems mastering magic. And with the big Faerieland festival coming up, she's got to find some way to come up with an act that will win her the Faerie Queen's peridot crown. But every other faerie apprentice is better at magic than she is. One day, she overhears two other apprentices talking about Edna, the Haunted Woods witch, and how she can help faeries increase their power. Problem solved! Except that everything Edna does comes with a price...
LaRue has a better handle on plotting in this book than in The Creeping Danger, and there's actually a hint of subtlety to what's going on here, as opposed to the straightforwardness of the other book. It feels more accomplished, even in roughly the same real estate. It's good stuff, much better than I was expecting (even as a fan of Neopets). A must-read for Neopians, and might bring a few non-fans into the fold. *** ?
