Couldn't turn the pages fast enough

Alfred: The Boy Who Would Be King by Ron Smorynski is a great beginning to a young teen series. Alfred is a young boy who enjoys video games and suddenly is in a medieval kingdom--a land of magic and powers beyond the ability of men and he, a young boy, is the king. Even though I'm a grandma many times over, I really enjoyed the book and know that I have several grandkids that will find it fascinating. Two worlds are linked magically through space and time and readers are introduced to goblins and ratkins, wizards and knights, and the boy king. There are forays into a Dark Forest, encounters with a hairy bear-beast, and a fantastic battle scene. So many 'funtastical' characters and action-packed scenes. I look forward to reading the other books in this series. I won this book in a contest from The Book Club Network and was not required to write a review. The opinions are my own.
