Customer Reviews

Like Eragon but much better!

I bought this for my 8 year old. He loved it and insisted I read it. I reluctantly obliged, thinking I was in for a boring slog through a children's fantasy novel full of tropes and cliches. Boy was I wrong! This book is fantastic! There were plot points that were not a surprise to me and a few unresolved questions I have, but the story is more than solid. It is entertaining as heck and I couldn't put it down! I wish I could shout from the rooftops for people to read this series. I'm only half through the second book, but this is head and shoulders better than Eragon, which was full of the tropes that make me cringe. You will not be disappointed if you pick this up. And tell a friend while you're at it. This author deserves more acclaim!
