A decent if largely predictable story that mixes ghosts, revenge and a coming of age tale, The Turtle Boy apparently kick-started Kealan Patrick Burke's career and for that I'm grateful.

So, I think I might give this 4.5. The writing is top notch which I've come to expect with this author. I"m almost 100% positive I know where this is going so let's say a bit off a star for that although it really didn't bother me. The other bit off the star is because I got to the end and I was ...
