From The Back Cover:
In this action-adventure-fantasy about 12-year-old Pete (Irish) Kehoe who thinks he’s an ordinary kid—until trees start talking to him and an old woman tells him he’s chosen to defend the mystical Otherworld against the King of Demons.
“No way!” He says, until a demon kidnaps his kid sister, Kathy. Then Irish and his two friends, Streak and Huff, time-hop to the besieged world to rescue her. But . . . are they ready to deal with a shape-shifter, a death fog, demon warriors, killer earthquakes and vicious flesh-eating wulgoars to get her? Can Irish’s ancestor, the ancient Celtic warrior hero Cuchulain, or the talking trees, help the boys triumph over evil?
This is a fast pace strong that starts and ends strongly. I usually don’t do fantasies but this one from the get go intrigued me. I loved the parallels of Old Irish mythology. I have a soft spot for Ireland ( not sure why.) I also love the team work undertone that is set from the beginning. Mr. Markee has described everything in such detail that you can visualize the event, characters, and surroundings as you are reading which is always my favorite kind of book.
Rita’s Rating:
I live in a small Georgia town that you most likely have never heard of and I LOVE it! My house is more than full as I am a single mother of four & caregiver to my aging mother and uncle. Lover of all things Outlander. Goes to the beat of her own drum woman.
