Prowlers, Christopher Golden
Review: This book is fast-paced, action packed and a real thriller. It might be a bit long but it's extremely good. I think it's for people who want to read because you have to get through the first two chapters before you get to the exciting parts. With werewolf-like creatures, lots of violence, a little suspense, etc. It has something for everyone. (In a series)
Wild Things, Christopher Golden
Review: This is the second book in the Prowlers series. Even more action packed. Very exciting.
Laws of Nature, Christopher Golden
Review: The final conclusion to the Prowlers. The fourth book. Read the explosive ending..
No More Dead Dogs, Gordon Korman
Review: Extremely funny. The main character whose first name is Wallace, and his last name is Wallace. (Wallace Wallace) He is very witty and humorous. Some things in the book include: Letters to Julia Roberts and mysterious acts of vandalism on the school play, "Old Shep, My Pal." Will Shep live to see another day?
