4-6Pendragon series.
Bobby Pendragon's quest to defeat the evil Saint Dane brings him to the apparent utopia of Ibara. Terrible secrets about the past are concealed from an ignorant populace, placing them in danger of Saint Dane's machinations. The shifts between Bobby's tepid journal entries and straightforward narration detract from the tension as the story races toward its conclusion.
