Review: Familiar Genre, But Unique in its Own Way

Yes it has similarities to other magic boy stories, but not in a Xeroxed the plot sort of way.  I enjoyed the unique world built around this book and the characters who populated it.  Especially as it is set in a fantasy world and not an offshot of our modern world.  This is the one way I think the author over Harry Pottered it, the main character was a little too ignorant of the magic considering it was a major (known) part of the world.  Overall a nice easy read.
