Fearghus Academy: Precarious Gems

Again what a wonderful book! 




My review

This is the third book I read and reviewed from I.O.Scheffer and the
Fearghus Academy. 

See also my reviews of October Jewels and Chrystal Shards.

So, I was very happy to read and review the third book: Precarious Gems.
I must say: it really didn't let me down! 

It took a while to read, but it was wonderful to see al the characters
again. The plot had it all: mystery, secrets and adventure. 

This is a great young adult read, it involved magic and lots of tension.

Of course I want to give a five star rating for Precarious Gems.

Fearghus Academy: Chrystal Shards

 A wonderful series



My review


I already read Fearghus Academy – October jewels with lots of pleasure,
so I was very keen to read the sequel.

As always, I liked the cover and the characters were amazing. They go through
a lot in this second episode. 

I also enjoyed the story, lots of drama, adventure and even some comedy.
I immediately fell this sequel became a bit darker. Nevertheless I’m looking
forward to read the next story and book!

Of course, I would recommend this book to all who want to read a different
but fantastic kind of young adult story.

Without any doubt I give a five star rating for this fabulous story!

Fearghus Academy: October Jewels

What a fantastic summer read!


Review

Fearghus Academy: October Jewels was a very interesting book to read. I
enjoyed the characters (the family) as well as the tensions and the plots.

There are even time switches and the characters are coming from over the
world. 

It was a fantastic summer read and I recommend it to people who like to
read Fantasy adventures books (ages between 6 to 12).

The book was released on 26 May 2020 and it contains 356 pages. 

I give of course a 5* rating because I enjoyed it very much.

The Game With no Name

 A lot of suspense!


My review


It's a very good point, I didn't realise this book is part of a series. But since I've
read "The Game With No Name", I defenitely wanted to read more books of the 
series. 

I liked the cover very much, as well as the plot and the family. There is a lot
of suspense and even a twist.

I would recommend this book for all who like to read adventurous stories.

Without a doubt I give "The Game With No Name" a 5 star rating.




The author


LG Cunningham loves to write scary, spine-chilling, monster filled, ‘
my-child-is-not-able-to-sleep’ stories. This term of endearment could
be as a result of growing up in an Irish town filled with ghosts, being
able to communicate with (and actually see) the dead or more than
likely because his family used to rent him horror movies (pre-Netflix
and pre-DVDs) when he was very little which had the affect of twisting
his brain to the extent that he was - and still is - afraid of his own shadow.


Booktasters


I thank Booktasters and the author for giving me a free copy of the ebook
in exchange to my honest review. This has not affected my opinion. 



The Game With No Name was published on August 23rd. 2020 and contains
142 pages.

 a book that impresses!



Summary


A Shadow Man is stalking the children of Ard, leaving the dead lying in
the forest with their eyes black pits. The people are in a panic, but the
investigating Ruad philosophers have no explanation. Seeking someone
to blame, the people of the ancient city of Ard demand the head of the
most dangerous person in their midst, the giant Waylaid.

Once great among the Fomor - a prince, a sorcerer, a priest - Waylaid has b
een cast out by his people. He has come to Ard with his Bolg apprentice,
Piju, to live quietly and study in Brea’s library. Can he escape the maddened
crowed and find the killer without breaking his vow to give up sorcery?

And has he failed to teach his young and impetuous apprentice the most

always too high?
