Reader reviewed by CLINT PARSONS

OKAY, HOW IN THE WORLD DID THIS BOOK EVER GET PUBLISHED. I THINK RANDOM HOUSE IS SLIPPING IN ITS FIND TO GET QUALITY LITERATURE OUT ON THE SHELVES. BECAUSE THIS BOOK FALLS SHORT OF THE MARK - BY A LONG SHOT. SURE THE KID IS ONLY 19 YEARS OLD. SURE THAT'S AMZING FOR SOMEONE SO YOUNG. SO WHAT? I AM SORRY I WASTED $30 FOR THIS STINKING NOVEL. IT READS LIKE A BAD BALDUR'S GATE WALKTHROUGH AND IS A CARBON COPY OF EVERY MAJOR FANTASY NOVEL EVER PRINTED. DOES THE KID HAVE AN ORIGINAL IDEA? NOT ONLY ARE THE DESCRIPTIVE PASSAGES OVERLY LONG - BUT WAY TOO MANY CLICHES.
