A Lord of the Rings for the 21st century. Only a lot shorter. And funnier. And completely different.Conor thought he was an average teenager. OK, so his father only had one hand, spoke to him in ancient languages and was a bit on the eccentric side but, other than that, life was fairly normal. Until, that is, two Celtic warriors on horseback and wearing full armour appear at his front door and try to kill him. After that, things get pretty weird. Shadowmagic is a fantasy adventure for young adults (although grown ups will like it too). Written by one of the most popular magicians in the country it brings a fresh approach to the genre and will have a broad appeal beyond the fantasy sections.

Your typical fantasy novel, this one based on Celtic mythology. 18 year old Connor discovers that he is a prince from another world. While there he meets many interesting individuals, like a Banshee and an Imp and trees that speak to you and hug you. It's not all great there, he is in danger from his Uncle the evil King. Overall it was a pretty fun read. The author writes in a humorous way, even cracking jokes in traumatic scenes.
