Review: Stone of Destiny
Rating: 4 out of 5

Stone of Destiny was one of those books that just appeared to be a fun read when I chose it.  This book starts quickly and then continues in avenues that are not expected.  It is similar to the DaVinci Code and Indiana Jones where items are found through connections with historical happenings.  This book takes place in Scotland, Ireland, and England.  An historical "stone" is stolen from England, found and replaced with a fake, and our hero attempts to find it to recover his kidnapped grandfather from a group who feel that the stone belongs to them.  I wish the author had done a better spell and grammar check as there are often places where this creates discontinuity with the reading.  Overall, the story line is excellent however and I would recommend it.
