I just finished a book called Rowan of Rin  - Rowan and the Zebak

This picture is the cover of the book.

    This book talks about the adventure of Rowan and his companions through the Wastelands! He has a very difficult task. There was a beast that took Annad away from the land of Rin. It was actually a test of the attack from the sky. To find his sister back, Rowan has to go to the place of the Zebak which is very far away. Rowan, Allun, Zeel, and Perlain were the group that accompanied each other on the way to the Zebak's Land. They were almost swallowed by the sea but however, their luck drove them to the other side of the shore. In the Wastelands, which they had to cross, lots of dangerous creatures awaits them. Also, they can't journey in the morning because it is impossible as the sun shines are too hot upward. As they enter the land of the Zebak, they uncover the truth about themselves, about the history of the people of Rin. The war of the Zebak and the people of Rin had started. Fortunately, the beasts that are used to attack the village of Rin learned their lesson as they travel to the land of Rin! Will Rowan and his companions finish their task and bring peace to the land of Rin, will Annad return safely home? Read and find out!
