"Spending the summer at her great-grandfather's lodge gives Missy a chance to explore and discover all kinds of secrets. She becomes good friends with a boy named Kevin whose parents work there and the two of them have all kinds of adventures (I don't want to give anything away so I'll just say it's realistic). The characters of Missy and Kevin are well-written and modern. I really liked the plot, especially how the story started and I didn't want the story to end so I'm glad there are more books in the series. I would recommend this book to kids in 4th, 5th or 6th grade."--Amazon Reviewer

Tommy MacArthur is a 6th-grader who is spending the summer at his grandparents’ with his younger brother. Though he is warned not to run past the old pendulum clock he does, of course, and the clock ticks when it should have tocked and Tommy is plunged into another dimension. He navigates through a number of adventures before stumbling upon the solution to returning. When he shows his new friend, Noelle, how to slip into the strange land, the two of them fearlessly explore.

Bigfoot Day, Ninja Night by Debra Chapoton

Genre: Children’s, Action/Adventure

Price:$.99

Where to Get It:

Amazon.com (for Kindle)








BIGFOOT DAY, NINJA NIGHT, by Debra Chapoton, is two books in one. Anna and her friends skip the school fair to explore the woods behind the playground. They find evidence of a Sasquatch then can’t find their way out of the woods. Things get worse when they take shelter in what might be Bigfoot’s nest.

In the second story Luke and his brother, Nick, go on a boys only camping trip, but things get weird and scary very quickly. Is there a ninja in the woods with them? Mysterious things happen as day turns into night.

What I found in the sample:

The voice is strong, appropriate for this age group, and the action starts right away. Immediately the reader is drawn in by the intrigue of the situation--something strange is going on in the woods. There's even some humor sprinkled in.

The Farce Of The Dark Side. Villains are the new Heroes in this Epic Sci Fi Adventure.

Evil UnLtd: on a mission of indefinite duration, to seek out new evil schemes and boldly go to depths and extremes where no super-villain has gone before.

Sinister supreme genius and super-villain, Dexter Snide, has floated Evil on the stock market and has gathered together a band of fellow villains, whose key challenge now is to ensure that Evil shows a consistent profit.

But Evil has its (some would say unfair) share of enemies: Heroes in all sorts of nauseating shapes and sizes, up to and including muscle-headed action man, Rolph Stengun; and, because Evil is a highly competitive field, rivals, such as the mysterious figure who has his Visigoyle minions shadowing their every move.

What begins as a heist to steal the greatest prize in the galaxy, draws Evil UnLtd into a devious plot to crash their enterprise before it's reached a fraction of its warped potential.

There is one thing of which their enemy may be certain: when anyone draws Dexter Snide into their sinister web, there will be serious disagreement over who gets to be chief spider...

What they're saying about it:

"The story is funny and well-written...and in places there were sentiments witty enough to make me laugh out loud (or at the very least smirk widely).The characters are very appealing; Dexter is slimy but not offensive and his frustrated-evil-genius is very entertaining. Mr Knucks and Evil Robot made me laugh; Tanith Troy is possibly one of my favourite women in some time, and Rolph Stengun (love the name, btw) is not so stereotyped as to not work (his cleaning obsession is a nice touch)."--Amazon UK reviewer

Can Jackson uncover the killer's shocking identity in time to stop the slaughter?

What they're saying about it:

"L.J. Sellers rips current social issues from editorial pages, wraps them in exciting, multi-faceted mysteries, and delivers thrilling reads. Pick up any Sellers mystery and you ll find the full package lovable, flawed human beings with interesting, imperfect lives; twisted, mean-spirited villains that we love to hate; good guys who aren t so good; bad guys who have standards; a suspenseful tale with enough plot twists and red herrings to keep the mystery fascinating to the last page and leave the reader begging for more." --Charlotte Phillips, author of the Eva Baum mysteries

"L.J. Sellers has written a fine debut mystery novel that explores religious fanaticism and its effects on the lives of various people. The characters are well developed, the plot plausible and well executed with an unexpected twist at the end. I look forward to reading more books by this talented author." --Lillian Porter, Bloodstained Book Review

Alex Teague tries to live a normal life. He’s close with his sister Alicia and best friend Cindy Marshall. He didn't think he was unlike anyone else. That all changed one night during his senior year in high school, when he talked to his first ghost, exorcised his first demon, and cleansed his first haunted house.

If only it ended there.

Now a young man in his twenties, Alex makes a horrifying discovery.

He is part demon.

Victoria, a vampire, takes him under her wing, and teaches him about the world of the supernatural, which Alex is now a member. She discovers a new breed of vampire, one which kills without thought or remorse. She enlists Alex’s help, but will even his growing demonic powers be able to stop them?

What they're saying about it:

"Demonspawn has an interesting take on the paranormal genre. The main character, Alex Teague, is a boy like most others growing up, with just a few instances that might indicate there is something different about him. But as he matures, questions about his heritage cause him to doubt he is really his mother's son. The true story is an interesting take on acquiring "super" powers. Main characters are well developed and the storyline is good. Pacing is OK, just a couple of spots it slows down. Dialogue is good and I like the overall style of the book. Good first entry by this author and I will be looking for more by Glenn Bullion."--Amazon Reviewer

"Demonspawn by Glenn Bullion is just plain great. But, not plain. Just great. I really enjoyed the ease and flow of the story from start to finish. I would encourage everyone who has ever been in love with their best friend and never realized it to read this. Also, anyone who has ever had to deal with their demonic powers should give this a read over as well. Great job, Glenn! I hope you put out more books soon!"--Amazon Reviewer

What do you treasure and how far would you go to find it?

Peter and Farren are two brothers who think adventure is sneaking into a pub or going rabbit hunting. Little do they know! Soon the youths are on a whirlwind \trip of betrayal, daggers, self-discovery and a giant reticulated python! Somehow they have to find a way to stop fighting with each other, avoid a sadistic Navy Admiral and a mysterious cloaked pirate captain, whilst remembering to tap the biscuits on the side of the ship – maggots are never good for breakfast!

“If you came for treasure it lies within, if you did not, what you treasure lies beyond your grasp.”

What they're saying about it:

"I JUST finished this book, and I had to come immediately and post my review while everything was fresh in my imagination....If you are a child (10+) or even an adult who dreamt of pirate adventures as a child -- THIS IS YOUR BOOK!!!!"--Amazon Reviewer

"R.G. Cordiner has written a book that is reminiscent of the tales I devoured and fantasized about when I was young, but it was thoroughly entertaining to me as an adult. I read this story and relived some of those fantasy afternoons of my youth without being made to feel like I was trespassing into a realm meant only for younger people. I would not hesitate to recommend it for kids and ex-kids."--Amazon Reviewer

You may not like your sister, but are you really going to fight a war against her?

James and Emily never get on - always fighting and arguing! But when James wakes up one night as his tooth is stolen by a jelly monster he follows it into a weird and wonderful world. Chocolate archers come out of the walls and fly in bubble gum balloons, giant rock candy trolls roam around, icing sugar snowmen appear and disappear, all under the direction of the Candy King who is preparing a war against the tooth fairies! Soon Emily and their cat Muffins find themselves joining the fairies, with only a toothless dragon and a phoenix with hay fever to help them fight the mighty Candy Army!

“The Candy King is waiting for you.”

What they're saying about it:

"At its heart this is the story of a fantasy land where tooth fairies live when not slipping a few bucks under your pillow. Yes, fairies, it's too much work for just one. When little brother James disappears his sister Emily manages to follow him into the land of the tooth fairies. The fantasy land R.G. Cordiner has created will spark a kid's imagination while Emily and James encounter a castle made of teeth, chocolate-arrow-shooting snowmen, a toothless dragon, and more. Buried inside the adventure are a few lessons they might not realize they've learned about the evils of war and importance of family."--Amazon Reviewer

"For me, this was a very cute story. I enjoy a good kid's story and this one was really a lot of fun! It does make me wonder though... what else does this author have up there in his head? This was a pretty unique story. It felt kind of like an evil version of the nutcracker (and their sugar plum fairies) crossed with a really ticked off gingerbread man. But let me be clear... it's NOT scary."--Amazon Reviewer

"Anyone pack the bug spray?"

What they're saying about it:

"From the first page on, R.G. Cordiner manages to build up suspense at a lightning quick pace and not letting the reader take a breath... The fog is thick... the bugs are huge... and the humans are terrified... There are a couple of surprise twists in the story and the ending had me gasping in shock."--Amazon Reviewer

"I bought this book on nov.2nd and read it a few days later. I can't believe how much I enjoyed it. You think its scary when the fog starts rolling in, wait until its gone. Great reading for kids of all ages.I enjoyed it so much that I hope that there will be a second book in the works. What would happen if the bugs got to the mainland. That is a scary thought..."--Amazon Reviewer
