This book is a wonderful, unique, fiction book.This book is about Arthur, Ren and Cecily time travelling into the year 2473 and into the virtual reality game called Wonderscape. My favourite character was Cloud. Cloud is a character can turn into the twelve characters who took part in The Great Race. I recommend this book to 9-12.

I thought that this was one of the most funny, thrilling and engaging books I've ever read! My favourite character was MIlo Hertz because he had a funny description and sounded very kind.

The book is about Arthur and his friends get lost in a virtual reality game and they find themselves trapped in year 2473. They need to find Milo Hertz, the creator of the realm keys so he could give them to get out. But first they have to face multiple challenges. My favourite bit was when they did a challenge of the warriors road. It was so interesting, I read it twice

Travelling in time and a starter to the book Legendarium this book is a thriller to read that I recommend. It is an amazing book where Ron, Cecily and Arthur go on a time travelling trip to the 25th century in the dangerous tournament Wonderscape where heroes are trapped to play in the competition.

It was a really good book! My favourite bit was the very beginning, where they found the explosion that transported them to 2473 and the Wonderscape itself! I would recommend it to people who like video games, historical figures and challenges.

Wonderscape is a book about three teenagers getting stuck in a video game and have to beat the game to get home and if they spend to long they end up as slime
Corporal Jet Waltzer 30.08.2021
It was a really good book. It was descriptive and had lots of small adventures. It is an original idea and was about three children travelling though this place called wonderscape. The children meet famous people who have been turned into mimics by another famous person.
