The Moon Stealers Review

Summary

The first in a series of four books that complete the story of The Moon Stealers.

In the small Yorkshire town of Parsley Bottom, Peter Crisp, a boy with an unusual gift of being able to see things that others cannot, goes missing after spending the night in a graveyard. Two of Peters school friends, attempt to find him but come across some mysterious engravings which propel them on an adventure beyond their imagination. By unravelling codes and riddles they journey within the bowels of Edinburgh Castle as they attempt to find the key to Peter’s disappearance.

Meanwhile MI6 operative Steven Knight is sent from London to investigate a meteorite landing which, he discovers, contains a bacteria within its core that is alien to our planet.

The bacteria quickly evolves into a deadly threat. The children not only need to find Peter, they need to save the entire world while they’re at it.

This cult fantasy adventure appeals to both children and adults and highlights the genuine possibility of what impact alien bacteria could have on our planet and the ecosystem on it. Would the inherent characteristic of human survival kick in or could the Earth be contaminated and populated by other forms? The genuine scientific and astrological information that exists within this novel gives it a realistic edge that will leave you considering the possibility of other life forms and parallel worlds for days after you finish it.

My Review

This was a very fun book to read. It has everything,aliens, slime, knights, fairies and a race to save a friend and the world. I like scary stories and movies and I’m not easily grossed out, but the creatures in this book gave me a shiver down my spine and soured my appetite a little lol. The story moves very quickly and keeps you guessing from beginning to end. What if? is the big question here. What would you do if aliens invaded and started killing off the population. The Moon Stealers is a little fun, a little scary and a lot adventure. This is book one in the series and leaves off with a cliff hanger that literally made me want to stomp my feet! I can not wait to read the next installment and I hope it’s coming soon! This story is good for adventure readers of almost any age including grown ups! Another big 5/5 from me =]
