I remember loving this series when I was a kid but I don't remember if I actually finished it, I might have moved on to another series by the time the last book was published, So here goes my attempt at rereading the entire thing!
The Kin are probably my favorite things ever, I loved how this book expanded on the worldbuilding that's slowly been taking place in the previous book, Plus, I love a good puzzle and this one has one of those puzzles that I remember trying to recreate when I was younger, Dread Mountain Deltora Quest, Emily Rodda

Kdo nemá rád zmutované klokany, občasné klišé a pavouky v chatě, ať tohle raději ani nečte,
Na druhou stranu, greenpeace by se asi vyřádili, když se tady podporuje toliko výsadba nových stromů, It is a comparison book as books such as other Deltora Quest books, They are all interesting and a good book to read, The characters are Lief,Barda,and Jasmine, Lief is the main character in the book, He is all ways funny but heroic, He is a very honest man, Barda,a very inpatient troll, Finally,Jasmine, a cleanlinessfreak girl, She always complains about her skirt had gotten dirty and stuffs like that, Togetther,they stop the world from a monster,Gellik, I felt worried after reading this book as the last sentence said,"he prayed that the wait would not be too long,"said Lief, The problems are that they need to findgems to the belt of Deltora to stop the evil Shadow lord from destroying the world, The moral of the story is that a person had to be respectful, A wizard wanted to learned a magic from the Shadow lord but the wizard says"Hurry up and teach me,you fool!"Once the lord had heard it,he turned the wizard to a old frog.
My feeling and the best part of the story after reading the story was that as the heroes were so up sad that their friend named Frano was turned to a big spider.
But actually,he reflected the magic back from the wizard and turned him to a stone!The genre of the body of the story was about fantasy and part love.
The seting was at a mountain top, The ending was mysterious as they mention about "waiting for you, "

Myyear old neighbour and I are reading the whole Delta Quest series together, I am enjoying the books as much as she is!
They are well written and filled with imaginative plot twists,
They also support the values of friendship, loyalty and honor, I would recommend Dread Mountain, and all the other books in the series to anyone who is interested in fantasy literature, Nie dorasta do "Morza Łez", ale wciąż z przyjemnością się ją czyta A step down from the others, since the villain was defeated too easy, اگر شروعش کنی نمیتونی بذاریش زمین!پس مطمعن باش زمان مناسبی شروعش میکنی
حتی لحنمم مثل کتاب شده نمیدونم نسخه من مشکل داشت یا واقعا تهش بااین عبارت تموم میشه:زیرا بیش از یک قلب از
واقعا عجیب بود تهش This was another really good one! We found one minor mistake how can they see each other nod in a completely dark space but again very clever,
Dante's favorite bit was when spoiler! the gnomes agreed not to hunt the Kin anymore, This is the fifth book in the Deltora Quest series, Be sure to read the previous books, sitelinkThe Forests of Silence, sitelinkThe Lake of Tears, sitelinkCity of the Rats, and sitelinkThe Shifting Sands, prior to reading this one.
In Dread Mountain, the trio travel to Dread Mountain in search of the fifth gem in the Belt of Deltora, the emerald, Upon arriving at the mountain, they learn of the Hatfields and McCoys styled feud between two groups, the Kin and the Dread Gnomes, As was the case in the previous areas that the trio passed through, the Shadow Lord's minions had managed to turn the residents of the area against one another.
There was one line at the end of the book that stood out, in terms of the overall story, Overall, a fine story, The next thrilling installment in Emily Rodda's magical fantasy saga, Lief, Barda, and Jasmine head to the sinister Dread Mountain to capture the fifth stone in the magic belt of Deltora, Join the Quest at scholastic, com/deltoraquest! این جلد یخورده کیوت بود مخصوصا
اون کوتوله هاش از نظر اونا ترسناک بودن ولی از نظر من از این کوتوله کیوتان
کوهستان وحشت مثل بقیه جلد هاش قشنگ بود و بسیار جالب ایده های داستان دوست دارم Mam ogromny sentyment do tej serii, w końcu zaczęłam ja czytać mając osiem lat! Miło wrócić do tych postaci i poznać tą część historii, której nigdy nie znałam, ale jest jeden zgrzyt dla dorosłego czytelnika jest to po prostu zbyt proste, zbyt przewidywalne, za mało rozbudowane.
Nie wspomnę już o tym, że okładki to masakryczny spoiler, bo zdradzają zakończenie i największy plot twist histori, . .
Poza tym naprawdę dobrze się bawię i niecierpliwie czekam, żeby dowiedzieć się, co będzie dalej i jak ta przygoda się skończy! به به, اون بود اون چیزی که از دلتورا انتظار میرفت.
بسیار جذاب تر از قبل بود و پرداختش به داستان بسیار عالی بود. اما همچنان شخصیت پردازی و شخصیت هاش رو دوست ندارم. My be warned, there will be spoilers!!
The Writing
I was kept glued to its pages from beginning to end! Very fastpaced and actionpacked! I felt like the writing and the pacing were much improved in this installment compared to the other two I've previously read.
The Plot
Ok, when the heroes come into contact with the denizens within the Dread Mountain, they learn that the Shadow Lord is finally getting suspicious that his precious gems are being collected and his allies are being killed off one by one, so by the time our heroes face off against the monster in Dread Mountain, Gellick, the monster toad
who enslaves the Gnomes within the mountain to do his bidding is aware of that someone or a group of people are after the gem he's guarding and very boastful he is the Shadow Lord's number one ally hahaha!
Characters
New characters are introduced:
The Kin a flying animal, that is a hybrid between a dragon and a kangaroo lol who were forced to leave Dread Mountainyears ago as they were being killed off by the Gnomes who allied themselves with the Shadow Lord and Gellick and been forced to live a shadow existence, stuck in their own dreams of their lost home.
They guard the Dreaming Spring where they encounter Leif, Barda, and Jasmine and the former befriends the youngest Kin, Prin, who doesn't dream as she only knows the Dreaming Spring and longs to see her family's home: Dread Mountain.
Oh, Prin, is also very stubborn, willful, and adventurous but is very doted on by her family as she is the only child born since the Kin were forced to flee, so it was great to see some character growth in a side character, also nice to see that the heroes are exercising some caution and patience, especially Lief who normally charges full steam ahead without thought, would like to see some more character growth in the others, though Barda's slowly warming up to his younger companions, even joking with them, so that's adorable.
We witness a vision that Lief has of his father, whose been captured and interrogated on Leif's whereabouts by the Shadow Lord's flunkies, obviously, Leif is concerned for his parent's safety and wellbeing and is ready to abandon the mission but both Barda and Jasmine convince Leif to stick to his convictions and stay on course.
Overall
I enjoyed this a lot more than the last two I previously read, the final showdown was good and well written, how that is done, well read on, won't give it away!
I guess I'm hoping that there will be more consequences for our heroes considering that the Shadow Lord is aware now that his plan to keep the Belt of Deltora dismantled so his reign remains unchallenged, I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop, a confrontation to occur and I've been thinking on who the true heir is, but I don't wanna say just yet.
definitely the slow point of the series, i got kinda bored with this one, although there were some fun moments like:
dreaming spring dreams
doom of the hills origin :'
blister source reveal :O
but the later use of the spring water etc, altho fun, was pretty predictable tbh
not much more to say on this one tbh !!.
