Echo McCool Outlaw Through Time is one
of those cross-over books:the storytelling seems to be aimed at
children, and the two maincharacters are twelve years old, but the story
can be enjoyed by adults too. I think the optimum age would be slightly
older
children, say 11 or 12. Echo McCool is a slightly Lara Croft-ish
character because she can do Ninja type fighting, and so on.
The story is mainly about Echo who, at the age of 12, escapes her
foe in medieval time and sleeps inside a hollow tree for hundreds
of years. She awakes in modern times and meets Jason Fleeting and has loads of adventures with him.
I think that the end was a little too
abrupt: most people would want to keep reading! However, this didn't
spoil the book for me at all. Overall, this book is quality and you
should go out and buy it!
