WHAT AN AWESOME NOVEL! I was captivated by the first chapter, now I can't wait to read the next! Two teenagers don't know that they of Guardians, and their choices could blow their newly budded romance out of the water. I loved the way that Sam and Jake kept each other's back when they had to fight a monster so much taller than them and he had more experience. Fifty foot dragons, enormous snakes, and huge apes are just the start of their problems waiting for them in the Amazon! I NEED TO SAVE MY PENNIES TO BUY THE NEXT BOOK!… (mehr)

If you are looking for something for your middle school child to read this summer then I highly recommend WhipEye. This book is full of magical adventure. The author has created characters you love and an antagonist you love to hate. There is enough adventure to grab that kid who wants lots of action. There is plenty of magic for the fantasy lover, and there is a beautiful alternate world that the kids are drawn into. Every great magical story has an object that plays an important role. In the case of WhipEye it is the staff that was given to Samantha. Will she and her neighbor Jake be able to avoid the evil Magnar and save all of mankind? I would suggest you read this book and then pass it on to your kids. I can’t wait to put this on my school shelves.

I received a free copy to facilitate my review. The opinions expressed here are my own.

Gorgon, is a terrific middle grades book. Although I came into this story on the middle, I had no trouble keeping up with the backstory. It follows the next step in the story of Samantha and Jake who have had some time to rest from saving the world, but they haven’t quite recovered from their ordeal. Both are still affected by what happened and before they can really begin to talk about it they are thrown headlong into a new adventure that not only threatens the safety of both Earth and KiraKu, but could mean that they lose their parents. The ancient schism in KiraKu leading to so many of its residents living in our world is finally coming to a head and Samantha and Jake will find that they can only trust in each other to get to the other side of it.

I love mythology origin stories and this one has done a fabulous job explaining the explainable. The denizens of KiraKu make for a rich tapestry to set this story against. The twist and turns in the story kept my head spinning and opened the door beautifully for a new sequel. Especially fun is Samantha’s encylopedia-like knowledge of animal species. This book is a must for the nerds around your house. I also truly appreciated that the story was equal opportunity. Too often MG stories are written about and for a specific gender. A story like this will appeal to both.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review
