Five Kingdoms 4: Death Weavers by Brandon Mull

Five Kingdoms 4: Death Weavers  by Brandon Mull, Aladdin, New York, 2016
This is the most adventuresome of the Five Kindgoms books to this point.  Cole travels to the land of the dead in an effort to rescue Destiny, one of the five princesses.  He leaves his body behind, and enters a death-like state.  He does this at a time when he is separated from his powers; although he knows he has them.  As part of this adventure he comes in contact with a magical stone, which restores his powers, and he is able to manipulate things to escape, and to rescue his friends.  In terms of science fiction and fantasy, this book does a great job of setting a new world with its own rules.  Each of the Five Kingdoms books has introduced a new world to this point, and that keeps this work fascinating.  The characters are mostly the same, while the environment changes. 
very good read.
