This is a fun fantasy/adventure story for middle grade kids. Thirteen year old Finn is a Tuatha De Danaan whose parents died fighting the Amandan- their enemies who look like goblins and can be turned to dust with bronze knives, but will regenerate and can only be killed by a legendary sword. Finn has gone to stay with Gideon as part of his apprenticeship to learn how to be a proper knight. They fight off the bad guys and Gideon makes friends with some neighboring all human kids (Finn's mom was half human). There is lots of action and adventure and I think middle grade kids will enjoy this book. I received this book free to review from Netgalley.
