A whole new world- Liz Braswell
Summary:
This is an alternative plot of ‘Aladdin’ if Aladdin had given over the lamp to Jafar at the mouth of the Cave of Wonders, granting Jafar the power of the genie. This leads to Jafar’s rule over Agrabah which is a very dark time for the people of Agrabah. The street rats start a rebellion against him.
Review:
This is a very dark version of the original book. The starting up until he enters the Cave of Wonders is the same. Aladdin has great leadership and decision making skills and somehow Jasmine is both caring and self- centered. But I think that more life could be added to Jafar’s character as in this book, he is simply portrayed as evil. The villain could be ambition, power hungry or very zealous, but he can’t JUST be evil because he’s crazy. The Genie also misses his spark, for which he is KNOWN for. And Aladdin has a one track mind during the whole book, he abandons human instinct in order to be a HERO.
