Not worth anyone's time when there are so many great books on the shelves!
Story about an awful child without a moral conscience. Our entire family was listening to this book on tape and after listening to more than 2/3's everyone from the 13 year old to the 9 year, felt compelled to turn it off. Evil is really not attractive.

AGE
11
I think boys of this age will find it quite humorous. It reminds me of a non-fantasy Artemis Fowl. The ending was a bit disappointing in how blunt it was. Wish the language wasn't there. There are better out there, but there are also worse if you're trying to engage a reluctant reader.
