My son read this book and this is what he had to say about it:

I’ve always been one for medieval adventures. I’m just fascinated by tales of knights and dragons and maidens in need of rescue, or in some cases, doing the rescuing. At first, I didn’t see how the different chapters connected minus a few nods to other characters, but as I read on, the tales told in the pages of this book began to connect more and more. Caretaker, in particular, interested me, as he made me think of the scene with Gandalf and the talking trees in the second film in the Lord of the Rings saga. The more you read this book the more invested you become in the lives of the characters and the more you feel like you’re a part of the story. I recommend this book to all who love tales of knights, dragons, and maidens.
