Shadow's Son is akin to a blockbuster summer movie that almost works. It's good entertainment, but won't leave you hungry for more.
The Eyes of the Overworld's matter-of-fact narration is easy to follow and the adventures of our "hero" are engaging.

It's never a good sign when a book starts with an infodump. Wit'ch Fire was a DNF for me.
Step into the wayback machine; this tale takes place long before The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings, when the First Dark Lord, Morgoth, sought dominion over all of Middle-Earth. It's an easier read than some of the other scholarly works of Tolkien and a much more enjoyable read as a result.
