Interesting! For some reason this reminds me of something like a Harry Potter story. Not a specific HP story. Now, tell me I'm out of my [bleepin] mind.

I just went out to Amazon.com - there are 3 books out there by the same author.

Nope, I didn't write it. The tone is refreshing, probably intended, with its grumpy attitude, to appeal to 12-year old boys.
He's klutzier than Harry Potter, claims he's not a hero. You can get the book at your public library (Hee-hee, a librarian is never on vacation)
