3.0 out of 5 stars When "electricity" was the high-tech buzzword, January 29, 2004
By 
John Bishop (Nashua, NH USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Magic Walking Stick (Kelpies) (Paperback)
This book dates from a time when "electricity" was the high-tech buzzword to explain anything, as the 1950's used "radioactivity"
and we more recently use "genetics".

The hero has a walking-stick with magic powers via the "Spirit of Electricity". It's one of a pair: one will lose its power if you use for any practical purpose, and the other will lose its power if you don't. Unfortunately, our hero doesn't know which one he has.

I found this entertaining but light. Buchan has done much better work (e.g. "The Thirty-Nine Steps").
