Sequel, please? :)
I will admit that it took awhile for me to get into this book; at about page 30 I was ready to put it down for good, so I decided to skim the pages and see what I was missing.
If you feel the same way when you read it, stick with it until they get to the library. That's all I'm sayin'. :)
I'd love to know....what happens next??

I didn't love it. I didn't hate it. It was just...there. It was pretty boring. I would probably never read it again. I didn't feel one way or the other about it. So you can take what you want from that.

An ambitious fantasy-mystery, weaving Irish folklore into a modern setting. It's not bad--a hunt for a missing uncle, a trip into Tir na N'Og, betrayals, legacies. It didn't light my world on fire, but it's good. I'd have liked a little more of the mystery aspect than the fantasy, or less of the Quest Novel, but even with those issues, it's not bad.
It is set up for a sequel, though, and I think I've ranted about that enough times. But any points it loses for being sequel-prone, it gains back by having no made-up words in it, for spells or creatures or anything like that. That kind of thing makes me crazy.
3 stars 'cause I'm feeling grumpy and can't really justify a fourth. It's not that great.
