Reviews

3.0

C'était exactement comment j'imaginais un roman d'aventure destiné aux enfants : - fluide, accessible et dynamique ;- avec un personnage principal jeune et qui prends des décisions stupides mais qui font considérablement avancer l'intrigue ;- une intrigue pas des plus crédibles, avec des enjeux beaucoup trop faibles par rapport aux moyens employés ;- et peu d'approfondissement des émotions ou des personnages. + à noter l'absence de personnages féminins, à l'exception de la mère du protagoniste
