This was a nice surprise even if it wasn't very original. Typical coming-of-age story of a young man with lots of potential and unknown (to him) abilities. I was worried the book would have too many characters and sub-plots but it doesn't. Very easy to read, flows well and lots of action in the second half. The ending is satisfying. Many things wrap up fully. The author leaves a little mystery to keep readers interested in how the story progresses in the next book. Rated B [4 stars].
Next is a library loan,
The Siege of Macindaw, the 6th book in the very good Ranger's Apprentice series by John Flanagan.
