Wrath of the Bloodeye

Wow. Have I really read five books in this series just this year?! This is the series that I've been reading aloud to Luke (age 9). Tom Ward is the young – almost 14 years old – man apprenticed to the Spook. As such they fight the good fight against the Dark whether that's boggarts, skelts, witches, or other nasties. On a couple occasions my wife listened in a bit as I read some passages to Luke. She'd say that the story was a little too creepy or scary but Luke and I would just roll our eyes and forge on ahead. This entry is essentially a continuation of the previous book as the Fiend once again enters the story. But the title is in reference to a water witch known as the Bloodeye. She is very dangerous. Like virtually all the other books in this series, Luke couldn't wait for me to read aloud the last 50 pages and begged to finish it himself in bed. So he actually finished this one night before I did. We're REALLY digging this series. Currently there's eight books in the series and yes, we'll be getting to book six soon.

I'm totally addicted to this series. But if I read it late at night before when my husband isn't home I have a little bit of trouble sleeping because I think about all the things that go bump in the night. What can I say I scare easily.
