The ADVENTURES OF FINN MacCULLEN

inspired by the Irish story cycle of Finn McCool

~ 2014 IPPY Silver Medal for Juvenile Fiction

“Overall, a great choice for adventure-loving readers who prefer their battle scenes with a hefty dose of ancient weaponry, ground-fighting skills, and just a touch of magic."

-School Library Journal

"If Lloyd Alexander had written The Ranger's Apprentice, the result might have been something like Finn Finnegan. Fantastic!"   -Mike Mullin, Ashfall and Ashen Winter

"Finn Finnegan brings classic adventure into a modern day setting for a great read. The Celtic lore in the story is fascinating and gives it an extra richness. This will appeal to all those readers (myself included) who love the idea of a hidden and dangerous world within our own sometimes too ordinary world."   -Dee Garretson, Wolf Storm

"If you have not started this series you must! If you have a boy that is middle school aged-he will love this series. If you are a middle school teacher, this book is definitely a must have for your classroom library. Highly recommended."

-The Literati Press

"It's rare to find a sequel that raises the bar, but ye gods! Karchut has done it with Gideon's Spear! Loads of action and humor, as well as a formidable new enemy, will keep readers turning the pages right to the end of Finn MacCullen's latest adventure."  -Jeannie Mobley, Katerina's Wish

"Fights break out, secrets are revealed, and an unexpected twist forces Finn and Gideon to trust someone they never thought they could. With everything that happened in The Hound at the Gate, I'm ready for the next book in this series right. now. I don't know how I'll wait!"  -A Belle's Tales
