I did love some of the characters personalities - especially his side kick Sir Tode, the lovely names the author comes up with and trying to unravel who the goodies and baddies really were which wasn't very easy! Threaded through the book is how important friends are and the importance of your true nature and instincts which I liked. It is a magical world so when you do find yourself thinking that Peter is pretty adept at getting around, for a blind ten year old boy, the author can be excused as of course this isn't a real story.! The three pairs of Fantastic Eyes weren't actually my favourite part of the book and I more enjoyed the adventures that Peter had trying to find out the meaning of the riddle that he had in his possession.

Peter is blind so the author does try to convey a sense of what Peter would be seeing, if he could see, which I think helps the reader to then imagine the world Peter has entered. It was a good read however and very vividly described so I have this amazing picture of the 'land' that Peter finds himself in. I would have preferred the book to be slightly larger and thus thinner and easier to keep open. I did find with this book being very thick (it is paper back) that the size of it made it not so comfortable to read. Not many books can capture across an age range but this book is one that I would feel just as comfortable recommending to an adult as I would an 8-14 year old. This book is aimed at the 8 - 14 year old age group but as with the Lemony Snicket books is an enjoyable read for the older reader also. It is a rather fanciful story of Peter Nimble a ten year old blind orphan who, after stealing a box, ends up on a rather magical adventure and in a little twist at the end discovers who he really is. If you enjoyed Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events then you will probably love this book too. If you've read that book, there won't be many changes to that plot, just some differences in character interaction.This Review: 8.0/10 Price: Value for Money: ReReadability: Personal Choice:

This is an insert of My Hero Academia characters into one of my favorite books of all time, Peter Nimble and His Fantastic Eyes. Izuku doesn't know what they do, but they will take him on an adventure he could only ever dream of, and help him discover his true identity. Imagine his surprise when a mysterious stranger gives him a gift. He is also the greatest thief the world has ever known. Izuku is just a blind orphan who wants a home.
