Review: Better than most.
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 9, 2013
Having plowed through a ton of fantasy novels on Amazon, I can tell you that many are formulaic, written in an annoying style, or just plain bad.  And, unfortunately, the ratings tend to be inflated (satisfied readers are more likely to rate things, I guess).This one, however, is different enought to be refreshing.  You may have trouble relating to the main character at first - he starts out as a sniveling nerd.  But he eventually grows into a brave nerd, so stick with him.
