Review

This story is about Dungeoneers, which are people that hunt and steal treasures. One of them is a young boy named Colm and he gets sort of forced into being one of their apprentices even though stealing is something he feels bad about…most of the time. Colm isn’t the only apprentice. He has a team of 3 others (they always work in teams) each with a special skill- it could be something like healing abilities, magical powers or super-strength. The teams have to work together to get past all kinds of dangers to find treasures and sometimes, the dangers are in places you least expect.

Thus is a terrific adventure. There is action, humor and great characters. One of these characters is Colm’s teammate Lena. Lena is a powerful warrior with an ego to go with it. The things she does and says will make you laugh. This book will be appeal to readers that like adventure, twists in the plot, humorous situations and cool fantasy. Super all around book.

Overall Book Score: excellent
