Book Reviews
A rollicking adventure for preteens and teens: Korey Ward is off to a great start with his debut novel, Rise of the Shadow Seekers. This was a very engaging story, and tough to put down. The characters were well-realized, and I have no doubt that many kids will identify with Alex. There are a few scary moments to frighten you, and a few really sweet moments to touch your heart, and an ending that will leave readers wanting for more.

Action packed read, perfect for preteens: Korey Ward is off to a great start with his debut novel. It's action packed and perfect for preteens. I enjoyed the storyline. It was entertaining. I loved the bond that develops between Angel, Nelson, and Alex. When Alex starts his new school, he was quick to be picked on as the new kid. But, Angel and Nelson both help him overcome it and soon discover there's more to their hometown than they could ever imagine. Creatures live among the humans in secret and not all are good. Alex soon discovers secrets his grandfather was hiding and will need to use them to save his town and Dad. Him, Angel, and Nelson form the shadow seekers and work together no matter what they face.

Exciting Story!: I'll preface this by saying that this isn't the typical kind of book I enjoy. Sometimes I like to get out of my comfort zone and try new types of books. That's what I did here and it worked. I was unsure at first but I ended up loving this book.
I'll also say that I think I am a bit older than the target audience but that's one of the things that makes it so good. Good writing can entertain anyone despite age or reading preference. That's what happened here. The writing was very very good, making me want to keep going. The characters were well developed, especially Alex. I wanted him to be my son. Haha. He's smart and curious and brave.
