The Orphan King by Sigmund Brouwer

I had a really hard time getting into this book and after getting through the first four chapters, I was not intrigued to finish it. I had no idea where the book was going or even what to expect from the rest of the book so I stopped reading it. By the first few chapters, if I am not hooked onto the story, I do not force myself to read it. I expect to be connected to the story and characters in a emotional way with the potential conflict being much clearer early on. This story left too much to mystery in the early chapters that did not pique my curiosity. I did not connect with Thomas, the main character, which is something that keeps me interested in a story.

If you are looking for romantic or exciting young adult novels, I would suggest looking elsewhere.

( I received this book for free from Waterbrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review, and this opinion is my own.)
