Ironic that I now have two novels signed out that have the title "The
Nest"
Much fantasy writing is overly derivative of the master, JRR Tolkien.
The present writer is one of a select few I account as being truly
original. There are times in reading this book that I have to remind
myself that this isn't Neil Gaiman, another of my select few.
Fantasy requires suspension of disbelief on the part of the reader. I
can buy into this fantasy save for one detail. I can't believe a
child old enough to be left home without a babysitter but too young
to be responsible for his siblings was left home alone with an
unhealthy baby.
