There is some harsh language, and alot of violence is described, but the humor and the scenarios are so outrageous that it makes perfect sense. Your kid NEEDS to read this book.

I loved this modern mythical adventure!
This is a modern fantasy starring a realistic teenager that involves car chases, sword-fights, and other cool things. However, I found the violence a little strong. A must read for teens.
- I rate this title iffy for age 2 and give it
Great Book for teens
Plot: a "rejected" boy's father tries to get money by stealing Excalibur (King Arthurs sword) but in the process things go wrong and the boy find out that who ever is in possession of the sword is "invincible" he then has to go find the man with the sword before he becomes to powerful with it. It's a good book, well written, fast paced and has good action in it. 5 stars not for 11 and under (Graphic Violence)
