The Invisible Tower by Nils Johnson-Shelton
2.0
I had to read this book for work because we might be using it as the basis of a competition.
The Invisible Tower by Nils Johnson-Shelton is neither an original story idea nor innovative concept. It takes the legend of King Arthur and places it in a modern setting. This is done in a way similar to the Artemis Fown, and Rick Riordan books. In some parts the writing doesn’t flow well and the story doesn’t seem authentic. Reading the conversations among the characters was like watching a poorly scripted and acted play.
The age group that the book is geared towards might not have an issue with the above complaints that I had. Still I think that a good book is a good book regardless of the age reading it and this I did not find to be a good book.
