West of the Moon by Katherine Langrish

1.0

Set in viking times, when Peer's father dies, he has to go live with his Evil Evil McEvil uncles. I had enjoyed the early part of the book, the setting and bit of world building around Peer's village, but as soon as the uncles came onto the scene, I had to bail. They were so black-and-white evil, it was unrealistic to the point of being annoying. However, this was a book aimed at younger readers, so... you can't blame a book for kids if it doesn't work for adults. DNF.
