From School Library Journal

Grade 4-6-The people of Rin are strong and brave, except for young Rowan. He spends his time caring for the bukshah, the gentle beasts that the villagers depend on for their survival. When their stream suddenly stops flowing and the bukshah are in danger of dying, six of the strongest, bravest villagers decide to climb the Mountain, hoping to avoid the Dragon that lives there, to find out what has happened. However, Sheba the Wise Woman is the only one who knows the way, and she has decided that Rowan must accompany the party, so she gives them a magic map that can only be read if he is holding it. Rowan starts off as fragile and a little whiny, but improves steadily, especially as he begins to realize that he plays an important role in the expedition. He is able to succeed through his own efforts, not through magic. The adults are one-dimensional at first, but as Rowan learns more about them, so do readers, and two of them prove to have unexpected depth. Traditional fantasy elements and setting are presented in a fast-moving and enjoyable tale that should be an easy sell to fantasy lovers.

From Booklist

Gr. 3-6. Rodda's new fantasy-adventure series (three other titles are to follow within a year) introduces the people of Rin, who live in the shadow of the Mountain ruled by a fierce but unseen dragon. When the community's water source suddenly dries up, and the dragon ceases his daily roars, some of the bravest villagers prepare to travel up the Mountain to investigate the problem. Young Rowan, a herder who fears he will never be as brave as his late father, must accompany the group because only he can make the magical map reveal its necessary clues. One by one, each strong adventurer confronts his own greatest fears and turns back, leaving only Rowan to deal with the fire-breathing dragon on the summit. Readers would have been satisfied had they simply been given an exciting adventure story. But this talented Australian writer has also given them a fully conceived fantasy world complete with its own flora and fauna, a well-developed back story, and fascinating characters. This tightly plotted mystery sprinkled with clever rhyming clues is somewhat reminiscent of Tom McGowen's the Magician's Apprentice series (1987), and it should be popular with young readers everywhere.

5.0étoiles sur 5 First Book in a Great Series, Déc 29 2007
This review is from: Rowan Of Rin #1: Rowan Of Rin (Paperback)
This is a terrific series that I, as well as my 9 yr old son, really enjoyed reading. My son is a big reader of fantasy and I liked it that this book presents some deeper issues very thoughtfully, something that many books of this genre for this age group do not do. It was a good family read.

5.0étoiles sur 5 FOR Anyone who loves adventure!, Mai 19 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: Rowan of Rin (Paperback)
Emily Rodda has a wonderful imagination! I became very interested in the book when I found out a kid was the main character. I felt as if I was ROWAN when I was reading it! A kid of 13 years, going on an awesome journey with Strong John, Allun, Broden, Marlie, Ellis and his sister because the water supply nearly ran out. I think this book is meant for all ages since this book is easy to read and hard to put down!
