Historia
Heralded as an instant classic of fantasy literature, Maguire has written a wonderfully imaginative retelling of The Wizard of Oz told from the Wicked Witch's point of view. More than just a fairy tale for adults, Wicked is a meditation on the nature of good and evil.

How totally unlike the musical
Revisado: 03-23-25
This was bad, absolutely not what I expected but I had to finish it. Very dark and not at all as good as the Wizard of Oz Movie or Wicked musical. Just avoid this wild and disjointed propaganda! Ugh!

Satisfying end to a great saga.
Revisado: 03-08-25
What I liked most was how everything was tied up nice, scientific and reasonably. None of the older cliche stuff like like some books like this.

Historia
Josh and Allison Conner have moved out from the city, inspired to create a retreat for children in need, a place to build skills and character. They've brought their own children with them, and now they're hurrying to rebuild and update the old camp in time for their first opening day. But something lurks in the wilderness around the old summer camp, something that strikes against the Conners' best efforts to revitalize it. They feel watched, then threatened, but after sinking their savings and their hopes into the place, they are unwilling to walk away.

The Queen of the Trails
Revisado: 01-05-24
One of my favorite ghosts trapper stories so far. Absolutely loved the setting and history of the camp grounds, especially the Trail Walker herself. Very well done.

Historia
It's October, and down at newly opened Pine Hollow Farm, the ghosts are running wild! This "genuine" old-time family farm offers a big heap of fun fall activities. You can drink cider fresh from the orchard, enter a pumpkin-carving contest, and explore the five-acre corn maze. At night, if you aren't too scared, join the haunted hayride through the woods, featuring a genuine 18th-century cemetery. According to local legend, the ghost of a horseman has ridden the old dirt road through the woods for nearly two centuries, menacing travelers. Hayriders beware!

Protagonist Maturity
Revisado: 04-09-23
I’m really enjoying the series over all. My only real complaint and it is beginning to get worse is Ellie’s attitude. I stopped after the 3rd book for a while because Ellie was becoming more immature, almost mean and antagonistic as the series went on; it’s almost like she gets along better with the ghosts she hunts more so than people. The absolute selfishness she displays towards Calvin wanting to be with his grandchild and daughter floored me. Hopefully this changes in the next book or two otherwise I will need to take another 2 or 3yr break.

A fitting end to and this era; definitely a must read. I laughed, I cried and I definitely will miss these characters.

Not as good as the two prior
Revisado: 03-10-22
I was mildly disappointed in this outing. I loved the two prior books but this plot seemed weak and at times a little forced. I seriously considered stopping and returning it. At one point this story felt like someone watched the X-Files, Indiana Jones and The Crystal Skull, then sat down and began writing this thing. In a nut shell… save your credit.

Historia
On the evening of November 24, 1971, D. B. Cooper hijacked Flight 305—Portland to Seattle—with a fake bomb, collected a ransom of $200,000, and then parachuted from the rear of the plane, disappearing into the night...and into history. Fifty years later, Agent Pendergast takes on a bizarre and gruesome case: in the ghost-haunted city of Savannah, Georgia, bodies are found with no blood left in their veins—sowing panic and reviving whispered tales of the infamous Savannah Vampire.

What has happened
Revisado: 08-19-21
This might be my least liked book of the entire series and maybe my last. After this, at a minimal I may not come back for at least 2 books if then. I am beginning to think that over the last few books the authors have also developed a serious dislike for animals, in particular dogs! Disgusting!I will refrain from any more specific or possible spoilers. Maybe the authors are burnt out or don’t know know what to do with Pendergast at this point, but this is not what I was been expecting. The narrator’s voice is all wrong and very distracting for Constance, bordering on horrible. Lastly the direction this book took near the end had me squinting and saying WTH!? Not in a good way. Overall I was extremely disappointed and left feeling very sad and unfulfilled, for maybe the first time in this series. Possibly for the last time to… no great loss I’m sure and many won’t care but I just felt the need to state it. For the first time ever I am seriously considering asking for a refund on a Preston & Child book. Take it easy!

The Swarm is coming! This time, enemy science vessels study us as Hive Masters gather hundreds of thousands of starships for an avalanche invasion. Instead of facing massed bug fleets in hopeless battle, we have a desperate plan: use a Builder nexus, create a hyper-spatial tube and send suicide-ships thousands of light-years into Swarm territory. There, our ships must find and destroy the nexuses that are the only way back home, all in order to stop the bugs from using the nexuses to reach Human Space.

Maddox becoming a jerk!
Revisado: 08-11-21
I am on my 2nd listen of this book in the series and finding it hard to finish. Captain Maddox is literally turning into a “New Man” jerk before our very eyes! I don’t know how much longer I can stick with this series. WTH? He gets more rude and worse every book!

I’m glad I didn’t listen to all the negative reviews. This was another solid adventure for the Gray Man and definitely the minor perspective changes added to the story in a positive way for me. Very good and heart felt to me. Gove this book a shot!
