Title: 60's hippie wizard kid finds himself.
Review: The book is about a kid who becomes a wizard. Anti climatic from beginning to end. He is bullied and mocked, ends anticlimactically. He is tasked with dispatching a massive old dragon and its spawn, ends anticlimactically. He unleashes an evil on the world, spends half the book trying to bottle it up, ends anticlimactically. The character is not self absorbed, the story about him is. There is nothing epic about this story in the least, it could have been a biography about a kid who grows up to become an architect, and its about as interesting as that.
