Russell Moon

I bought this as an ebook from Fictionwise, and annoyingly found it was number two in a series (and misdescribed too). However, having read it, I feel no great compulsion to go back and read book one.

It would be hard to find this story's niche. The language - whilst not terrible - is strong enough in places to make this a young adult rather than a children's book, but the story was simplistic - almost turgid. Basically the protagonist is an 18 year old lad who has discovered he is secretly show more a witch prince. His mother has been kidnapped and he has a lot to learn about his father.

Maybe it was that I had not started this series at the beginning, but it really did not captivate me in the slightest. The celtic connection was tenuous, and the overall concept was unconvincing. show less
