Title: Colfer hits a foul ball
Product review: This book is written at too high of a level for kids, yet isn't a very interesting story for adults. Ninety nine percent of kids under the age of 13 will have difficulty keeping up with the dialog, which often rambles on between characters without attributing the source. In addition, the vocabulary, although fine for adults, is well beyond the intended audience. A little literary stretch may be good, but this goes too far. I found the story dry, and the ending anticlimatic. I suppose Captain Short is the protagonist we are supposed to cheer, but most other characters didn't appeal to me. J. K. Rowling can sleep well.
