Auric's Thoughts:

This was a favorite of mine growing up, and I checked it out of my library often. I recently reread it and found it almost as good as I remember. There's even a glossary at the front which helps clarify some of the Maori terms used here. Getting the good endings mostly involves being patient and waiting or not being greedy. The art is quite good and is one of the best things about the book.

Demian's Thoughts:

This is yet another adequate but unexceptional entry in the series.

Good's Thoughts:

A little dull, but I'm keeping it because there ARE a few interesting adventures. The Lost Tribe is a good title, and I DO suggest this.
Rating: 4.5/10

Waluigi Freak 99's Thoughts:

The writing here was rather dull, as were the storylines. They were enough to carry me over a few pages, but none of them really made me want to continue after a tiresome bit.

Errata:Darth Sidious reports that the correct ending count is actually 30, contrary to the text on the cover.
