Jason Walker has often wished his life could be a bit less predictable--until a routine day at the zoo ends with Jason suddenly transporting from the hippo tank to a place unlike anything he's ever seen. In the past, the people of Lyrian welcomed visitors from the Beyond, but attitudes have changed since the wizard emperor Maldor rose to power. The brave resistors who opposed the emperor have been bought off or broken, leaving a realm where fear and suspicion prevail.In his search for a way home, Jason meets Rachel, who was also mysteriously drawn to Lyrian from our world. With the help of a few scattered rebels, Jason and Rachel become entangled in a quest to piece together the word of power that can destroy the emperor, and learn that their best hope to find a way home will be to save this world without heroes.

I didn't enjoy this nearly as much as I enjoyed Brandon Mull's Fablehaven series. There didn't seem to be much character development so that even by the end of the story, I didn't really care what happened to the main characters. In addition, the author didn't really seem to build up any suspense so that the big "shocker" at the end wasn't.

A World Without Heroes is a 'grew on me' book. Initially, I was not sure I liked the tone at all. At first, I thought it would read more like a Disney film than a weighty young adult fantasy novel with potential. As I listened, my feelings started to change. The idea is not new, but the in- between steps of the journey proved interesting. While I am not extensively well read, not in the least, in epic fantasy, I appreciate the quest as a foundation for a story. Fairy tales (which I am very
2.5 Starsit was okay. & just boring sometimes... yeah, you could say that. (I think it deserves more than 2 stars tho, so I give it 3)reminded me some kind of Lord of the rings in middle grade. but I had more expectations when I read the interesting first chapter (which made me shocked when I saw this categorized as a middle grade) but all was going very plain & slow after that, you might even say low profile... it was more like a tour to see this World, introduction to characters &
Jason, a 13-year-old boy with the love of baseball, led a pretty normal life, but when he heard music coming out of a hippopotamus, his whole world was turned upside down. He wasn't going crazy or hearing things because of a concussion he had gotten from hitting his head with a baseball, the music was coming from a completely different world. Leaning forward to investigate, Jason fell into the hippopotamus mouth, and landed in the middle of the forest. Finding help from a strange lore master,
