Title: Poor attempt at mythology
Product review: The author uses very simplistic vocabulary and repetitive style. Due to stylistic sloppiness, the read is unintentionally ridiculous on almost every page, greatly damaging the suspension of disbelief for this true story. By avoiding character complexity, Carlson attempts to create mythological prototypes, but falls short of bringing the book to the level of an epic. I would have enjoyed this much more at the age of ten, if it weren't for occasional strong language and adult content.
