A nice book, definitely targeted at older kids/teens - some dark parts that aren't kid-friendly. Heavily influenced by LOTR, but not as rich or deep - a teen-friendly version, for sure. I felt the book couldn't quite decide if it wanted to be mature or not, so you can feel it change a bit from chapter to chapter. On the whole though a nice fantastical read.
