First read this book in 2006 and would have given it 5/5⭐. Just now re-read as a memory refresher to determine if I should give it as a gift to my niece. Imma give it a 3/5⭐ this time around. 17 years has definitely made a difference for me. Still a great story for a pre-teen, especially considering the author was 15 years old when he wrote this book. A good entry into the fantasy realm, and an easier read than LotR.
