Quests of Shadowind by L.A. Miller

Logan and Mindy Oakes wake up to discover everything has changed. Wrong beds, wrong clothes, wrong house. And, worst of all, their parents are missing. When they go outside, they run into a friend whose parents are also gone. In fact, all the grownups in town have inexplicably vanished. Then along comes a spider a giant, monstrous, mechanical horror.
And that s the least of the nightmares that will befall the brother and sister in Shadowind, a dangerous, otherworldly dimension inhabited by ghostly creatures, cyborg animals and virtual humans a land where anything is possible, including being downloaded into a cryptic, evil role-playing game.
In order to survive, Logan and Mindy band together with other kids determined to find a way back to the life they knew and loved. Ultimately they must battle the sinister cyber-lord for the Staff of the Sky Shifter, a powerful weapon that could destroy the universe...but might also be the key to getting back home.

My Review:
This was an interesting book, and I will never see spiders the same way again. I liked the alternate universe, and thought that the author did a really good job making a cyborg book for kids. The book had me as soon as the kids banded together against the monsters. I did not like the "trouble maker" of the group, and I was happy with how the author ended that characters story.
I am giving this book a 4/5. Vicky~ from The Kindle Book Review
