Book 3 of the Dark Paladin. This was the conclusion to the series. Several twists and turns but what I am surprised at was that there was very little focus on the levels. The restart was pretty good there were parts that felt lacking but overall I can see the basis on which his later…

Book 2 of the Dark Paladin series. This is a fantastic book albeit the main character has a sex fixation like a teenage boy. Aside from that the story is well told and leaves you wondering what is really going on in parts. Lots of twists and turns, including one right at the end. Excited…

Book 3 of the Wings of Fire series. Off to visit the Rainwings. They seriously cannot be as flighty and lazy as everyone keeps saying, right? Super cool descriptions and a whole new set of problems. It was nice that the author deviated from the whole get captured escape theme and took it a different…

Book 48 of Animorphs. This was a very dark book that jumps around a lot. In the end it is a full introspection for Rachel. Most of the series has grappled with the hidden cost of war. This kept on with that thought process. In the end it does not give us the conclusion of…

Book 70 of the Boxcar Children. What a great lesson and read. Parallels could be drawn from this to A Christmas Carol. Although told much differently, the moral seems similar and he also learns it from a ghost in a manner of speaking. I strongly recommend that this not be one you miss.

Book 2 of the Wings of Fire. This was a great follow on from the first book. It was nice to see Tsunami in her element. I love how they showed growth in her character. This is a twisting sinister series that keeps you asking who the god guys are if anyone. We shall see…

The car that kills. This is one of those stories that leaves you with the creeps. Of all the stories I have read thus far, this was one of the few I would call horror. Although maybe a thriller with a car as the serial killer. We put together with unforgettable characters, it is one…

Book 1 of the Dragonet Prophecy. This is a great start to a series. If too love dragons then you will love this series. The characters are unique and lovable. This fits well into the YA fantasy market and I would recommend this to 13 and up as there is some violence. Overall this is…

Book 47 of the Animorphs. This ones stands out from the others. It has a cool parallelism drawn between the storyline and the Civil War. The ending is a bit confusing from the journals point of view, but is otherwise a great story and I recommend not missing this one.

A markedly Stephen King novel. A great cross country novel with echos of “The Body”. Overall it is a good read. There are parts that seem long and this is defiantly not for children. We see glimpses of Stephen Kings own drug issues as we move through this book. The point of a boy setting…
