Anansi in the Land of Monsters (Book 3)

ANANSI IN THE LAND OF MONSTERS & OTHER STORIES
Book 3 of ‘The New Adentures of Anansi’

MONSTERS AND CHOICES…
‘ANANSI IN THE LAND OF MONSTERS & OTHER STORIES’ is a tale told in flashbacks. At the centre of the story is the mysterious Land of Monsters- a magical and terrifying realm in which every step that Anansi takes threatens to be her last. Chapters revisit events we thought we understood from the first 2 books- turning them on their heads. Stories reveal Anansi’s family life, her inner world, and uncover even more bacchanal and treachery in the Kingdom of Animals. We start to see our heroine more clearly, her hurts, her dreams- and her failings… The book expands the Universe of the Animals with epic scope, multiplies Anansi’s adversaries, and leaves the Kingdom poised at terrifying new crossroads.

‘THE LAND OF MONSTERS’ is a magical ‘Journey of Girls to the Other World’ type of story- like ‘Alice in Wonderland’; ‘The Wizard of Oz’; ‘Peter Pan’; and ‘The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe’. Or like the Greek myth of Persephone and her abduction by Hades. Only this time, the story features an African/Caribbean diaspora girl-hero- who just happens to be a Spider. This may be the most stunning tale in Victor’s ‘NEW ADVENTURES OF ANANSI’ series yet.
