"Fledgling, A Jason Steed Adventure" is a British action/adventure story featuring the multi-talented 11yo Jason Steed. It's a tale of friendship, loyalty, bravery, military duty, hardship, heroism, father love, and personal loss. Jason is a blond, blue-eyed super kid. A karate brown belt at age 5, he holds advanced belts in karate and jujitsu by age 11. Brought up in Hong Kong, he speaks Chinese among other languages. Despite his small size, his prodigious talents in the martial arts stand him in good stead as he gets involved in one scrape after another -- all of them learning experiences. But "Fledgling" is more than a bloody adventure story (and there's lots of blood). Jason must come to grips with his military father's own problems and prolonged absences. Jason is helped along by his faithful friend, Scott, who teaches him how to speak to grownups, as well as the royal princess whom he falls for big-time. The climax of the novel is a real whizz bang! Note to American readers: the author is English, so when he says "He landed on the floor" it typically means "He landed on the ground!"

The story is very fast and keeps you turning the pages. The author explores Jason's Feelings. The relationship between father and son. The strong bond between two young friends, it shows how boys can have feelings for each other, not sexual just as very good close friends.
A scene in an aircraft; Jason get's hurt, the author seems to turn down the volume and paints a brilliant picture of Jason's struggle with tears of pain. Once his father screams at him on the radio to keep going its a very powerful and emotional scene.
This is all fitting in and around Jason and Scott's Pranks and the climatic adventure. I have just read it for the second time. This is a first for me. I cant recommed this book enough.(less) "
