Clement: Boy Knight of Normandy by Craig R. HipkinsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Clement: Boy Knight of Normandy (Clement, #1) by Craig R. Hipkins is masterfully crafted story featuring well defined characters and a beautifully rendered setting. This is the first book in a promised trilogy and if this book is any indication, you are in for some more fine reading. The author's novel Aldalbert exposes us to some great characters, and this one continues in that vein, carrying forward some of those same characters. Full of adventure and skilled storytelling, this novel has Clement as the main protagonist, a 13 year old boy living in a castle. Clement has an evil uncle, Sven the terrible which makes for a challenging relationship between the two. These aspects all come together in an entertaining way, certainly geared toward younger teens, this book will appeal to an older age group as well. Fun, engaging, and creatively written, this book is highly recommended.
