If ''A Hero's Quest'' was the first four chapters of a longer book, I'd be thrilled to carry on reading. With the possibility of four more unsatisfactory conclusions, before finally getting to the sixth and final book in the series, it's not something I'd want to gamble on, nor is it something that I can really recommend. It's a shame, as it could have been a book to rave about.
My thanks to the publishers for sending it to Bookbag. We also have a review of [[Gladiator Boy vs The Living Dead by David Grimstone]].
[[Powers (Annals of the Western Shore) by Ursula K Le Guin]] is aimed at slightly older readers, but it's accessible enough for a confident reader with enough patience. [[Dark Angels by Katherine Langrish]] also has a historical air to it, but with a touch of fantasy thrown in for good measure.
