The Legend of Black Jack

Reading the blurb on the back of A.R. Witham's The Legend of Black Jack, I initially thought this would be a Fantasy version of Harry Potter. While there might be a few similarities, this is not Harry Potter.

This is a very imaginative and creative entry in the Fantasy genre. While this story is contained, there's enough world building and enough things that really aren't explained that could lead to more stories or this being a series.

It was a quick fun read with a diverse cast of likeable (and unlikeable) characters. I thought this would be geared more towards a younger audience but it's what a fun scary 80's PG-13 movie would be if it were a book.

The heart and soul of this book though is the relationship between father and son.

I highly recommend this book and would like to see more stories from this universe!
