The Shadow of Seth by Tom Llewellyn

Review: The Shadow of Seth by Tom Llewellyn

She left. It was the last time I’d ever see her alive.

Growing up I read a lot of Hardy Boy books, I was always checking them out from the library and buying my own at Borders. I may have moved on to adult thrillers, however I found reading The Shadow of Seth to be refreshing, as it’s the middle ground between mystery books for children and mystery books for adults.

Review: Fury by Steven James (Blur Trilogy #2)

As I mentioned in my review of Blur, I loved it so much that halfway through it I went ahead and got Fury. I thought Blur was good, but Fury was even better. More action, more characters, and an even bigger mystery. Fury picks up a few months after solving the case of Emily Jackson’s death. Daniel’s blurs have all but disappeared, so he’s getting back into his normal routine. With football season now over, Daniel’s playing basketball. One day in English class he spaces out, then when he snaps out of it, he looks down at his notebook. In it he had written “Lost Cove is the key” over and over…but it wasn’t in his own handwriting. Then later when on his way to a basketball game, he has another blur….and then another during his basketball game. In his blur he sees a child at a bard and hears her say “Madeline is waiting for you, Daniel”. The child’s nightgown then bursts into flames, leaving behind a blackened corpse. It looks like Daniel has another mystery to solve, but what’s it all about this time? In a race against time, Daniel has to solve the mystery of the mysterious barn, who is poaching wolves, and locate his dad. From breaking out of an asylum to a near-death experience, Daniel has to figure everything out before it’s too late.
