The Unfinished City follows the adventures of the young artist Rella PenSword as she and her new friends defend their city (and her dreamworld) from the S.N.O.B.S.
It is also the second book in the best-selling children's fantasy series Rella PenSword and The Red Notebooks.
From the back of the book:
Rella PenSword is back on Earth One. Nothing looks or feels like it did before her journey through the dreamworld. She misses her new friends, Eurie and Quinn, but she needs to know what happened to her parents.
Before she unpacks a single box, Rella ventures out into an extraordinary and futuristic city filled with inter-dimensional portals, secret technology, and luminous plants. She quickly discovers that the S.N.O.B.S., a swarm of tuxedo-wearing humanoid robots, are invading the city. The SNOBS have been programmed to steal every last one of the sacred Red Notebooks.
With the help of her ingenious friend Q and a mysterious new neighbor, this approximately 9 year old girl (in Earth One years) embarks on a quest that will require more courage and creativity than ever before. Luckily, she also has the help of Mara, Soup, Ives, and Page, who all want to protect the city as much as she does.
Will the Red Notebooks—the soul of story and imagination—survive the robot invasion?
Lock into your hover boots, grab your gear, and follow Rella as she navigates The Unfinished City, an imaginative fusion of science fiction and fantasy for children, teens, and adults.
Note on the order of the series: While this is the second book in the Rella PenSword and the Red Notebooks series, it can be read as a stand alone or first. Readers will find connections back to The Wondercurrent. However, this book was also written with new readers in mind. If haven't read The Wondercurrent, you can check it out either before or after you read The Unfinished City.
