About this audiobook
But when he walks into the woods behind his house one day, Gary finds a world beyond the "real world"-a realm of elves and dwarfs and witches and dragons. There he discovers that he is the only one who can wear the armor of the land's lost hero-and wield a magical spear.
And if he doesn't, he can never go home again.

Reviews for The Woods Out Back
21 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Entertaining - not great, but pretty good.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This starts with a fairly standard premise - the unhappy earthling who wanders into the woods and into Faerie. There, he must fulfill a quest or die trying. The overall plot may not be original, but Salvatore does a good job with it.
