Crater Lake

Product Information

Not a bad sequel! I don't know if it's just my mood but I enjoyed the first book more. This was still good though and funny, many great moments! Night Mayor Franklefink has vanished from the Transylvanian Express - and it's up to you to solve the case! Part of the Solve Your Own Mystery seri...

As per the first book, the words ‘DON’T, EVER, FALL ASLEEP’ are emblazoned across the front cover and this is a warning I strongly suggest you heed. Probably best to avoid the tomato soup too. A brilliant fast paced adventure to get your heart pumping. I read it in one sitting, completely engrossed and with adrenaline coursing through my veins.’ My Shelves are Full Along with Karim, who's mum works at the University, Lance goes to investigate. A dangerous study subject has escaped but is that the danger or is there more to it? Lance is getting Crater Lake vibes and his suspicions might just be proved right. Crater Lake is the kind of book I’ll give to students who claim they hate reading because I know it will help turn the tide.’ Portable Magic DispenserCrater Lake: Evolution is a thrilling, nail-biting sequel that I devoured. I thought Crater Lake was an amazing story but Evolution is even better! The action is fast-paced and there were times I found myself holding my breath as I wasn’t sure how the characters were going to get through. Chapter 13 is one of the most terrifying scenes I’ve read in a children’s book! I can’t spoil what happens but it sent chills down my spine. It is incredibly creepy but such fantastic writing, and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. It’s the sort of book that I guarantee would capture a whole class of Year 7/8 students because it’s so gripping.

I could probably talk about this book for more and more because DANG it was a whirlwind of awesomeness. Aliens, friendship, action, and more! But I will keep it to this one. Highly recommended to all. Life has been crazy since the summer, and there have been times when I genuinely didn’t think we’d make it through. But here we are. I guess life will always throw change at you, and there will be times when people have to go their own way for a while. But knowing that I have people in my life who will always be there when it really matters makes me feel like I can face anything.After our ‘girlie’ book last month I was determined to choose something totally different this month. Cue Crater Lake a horror/thriller style book with Lance ‘Fang’ at the centre. I was flying solo this month with no actual hands on book club. The comments below are therefore mine and mine only as a 38 year old woman, not as an 11 boy which the story is more probably aimed at. Are we in America? I don’t know,’ I say. ‘But, to use the words of every great Star Wars hero, I have a really bad feeling about this.’ CRATE LAKE EVOLUTION is a horror sequel that successfully takes an already established monster and makes it scarier and fresh-feeling in the sequel.
