An accomplishment for such a young author to produce a piece of fiction, with initial depth of character development, however, in my opinion, struggles to make the story flow believably.
First manifest with fledgling powers, the hero is easily overcome and beaten (because of inexperience?) but is given high praise for tactical strategic thinking, only to be duped and thwarted again.
It was a bit of a clumsy read, from the mind/fingers of a developing author.
