The Lost Years of Merlin

T.A. Barron

DID NOT FINISH

I loved these books when I was a kid - I read at least a few of them. But I find myself begrudgingly reading it instead of being excited to get back into the story. 40% of the way into the e-book and I just feel bored.

It started slow for me and I struggled a bit at first, but when the first betrayal happens, it just takes off! I also wasn't sure how I felt about Tau, but he grew on me quickly. It became a book I could not put down.
