Illuminatus by Martin Booth check out website: www.puffinbookclub.co.uk
Can they believe him and if so how can they help him fight against the
great evil that is coming to their village? It seems that Sebastian's father was
an alchemist that made a powerful enemy.
It also shares some neat ideas about the nature of time
and hypnotism. There are some scary sequences including the appearance of zombies
but the world, as we know it, survives. If, like me, you enjoy the
whirlwind ride you'll be pleased to learn there will be a sequel in time for next
year's school holidays. Sue Davies

When Pip and her brother Tim move into a
house with a history they don't expect the history to come to meet
them.
This
story is for children ages 10+. Although a fairly short book it packs a lot of
information into its 175 pages, racing along to its conclusion. It uses some history
and adds some carefully constructed 'facts' to entice and ensnare the reader into
Sebastian's world.
