An enjoyable and engaging YA fantasy debut. It reads like Tolkien crossed with Harry Potter for the YA crowd, and it definitely isn't a bad thing! The story follows the young blacksmith apprentice, Fletcher, who discovers he can summon demons and trains as an summoner to fight in a war against invading orcs. The story is fast-paced and the characters are likable and interesting. A good choice for younger YA readers looking for an action-packed new series to get into!
