Nebulous is a fantasy tale that brings all the stops to the table. It starts with young Ty witnessing his brother, Xavier, being taken by a mysterious presence. He follows in pursuit, and before he realizes the extent of the search, he wakes in a land that is completely foreign on all accounts.

Ty is a young boy who quickly comes to term with the fact that he is the only one who can save his brother.

I read Nebulous in two sittings. Each character came to life quickly and effortlessly. Author Keith Weaver did a wonderful job creating the comradery between Ty and his new allies Bake, Kits and Muji. I loved how the crew came together for the common cause of taking down the evil Queen Joro. A band of misfits that never even thought of giving up on the quest.

This fantasy novel has it all, and I was truly impressed. As far as editing and format, the book looks lovely with little to no editing errors. I would recommend it to anyone who loves the fantasy genre or anyone who simply loves adventure.

Nebulous by Keith Weaver is an enchanting tale of a boy catapulted into a mystical world populated by enchanted creatures and evil monsters. The hero, Ty, wants only to find his brother, rescue him, and return him home unharmed.

On the surface it is an exciting tale of adventure. On a deeper level, this is the tale of a young boy’s growth and acceptance of responsibility. However, Mr. Weaver’s writing style is the most pleasant surprise. This tale is told as though the reader is hearing it from the mouth of a young adult. He has successfully captured the tone and speech patterns of a (precocious) young boy. While reading, I found myself vividly remembering segments of my life at this age when the world held nothing but mystery and all things were possible.

I look forward to future works by this author.

Keith Weaver wove a fantastic tale with his young adult book, Nebulous, that was an enjoyable read from start to finish. As a parent I'm always on the look out for anything I can read with my 7 and 9 year old and Nebulous definitely hit that mark. The mystery and magic of the world of Nebulous was felt through Mr. Weaver's tasteful writing and I was able to picture not only the world itself but also the characters who inhabited the land.

Excellent job Mr. Weaver, my children and I thank you for this tale and look forward to the next in the series.

Lovely book that reminded me of the Princess Bride with the way the story seemed as if it were a father telling it little by little to a child of ten or so. I like that Nebulous is a world where Ty goes with all the attendant evil queen and helpers along the path characters. Very nice.
