And another book about nothing. The book tells the story of two boys, Jim and Will who are friends, and Will's father, who likes to drink and regrets not being young anymore. There is a storm coming, and the boys are gifted an metal rod device that can prevent lightning from burning their house.

Books like Asimov's and Dune grasped me in the very first sentence. This, and the latest ones I've been reading, does not.
