Fun book that puts the mind of a Sauron-like character into a young English boy. Pretty much consistently enjoyable, although it does get close to "cheating" near the end, but well worth the read.

Picked this up randomly as a book crossing book some years ago but only just played it. 4 stars to cover the pure nostalgia - used to love FF books and this took me right back, although I don't think I actually played this one in my youth.

Surprised at how well it reads, and also just how tense it is as an experience. Finger-bookmarks definitely spread through the book as I got closer and closer to the end.

A great follow up, looking forward to the next one.

This is a very funny book. It's also very entertaining to the people who are into things like wizards and dragons. 4Q4P The cover art is okay and I'd recommend this to middle and high school adults. I chose to read this book because I thought that the title sounded really good. DontaeH
