Excellent series with all the ingredients - seldom cookie-cutter, but a little typical - boy with secret talent, love interest/romance, ancient, mysterious teacher to train boy's talent, boy defeats older, wiser, evil enemy. BUT even though it's a little patterned/stereotypical, this book is fun, interesting, and very well written. Jones works in enough creativity and newness to make it well worth reading.
