GJSHS book reviews

Yet another amazing novel by an amazing author, this one is named Wormwood.  Like the previous novel, this one is full of twists and turns, and has tons of suspense.  But this one is a bit harder to follow.  It takes place in old-time London.  It’s about this book named The Nemorensis.  It’s a book so evil it can possess your soul by just touching it, and/or reading it.  Wormwood follows the life of a servant named Aggeta Lamian who gets caught up in all of this, thanks to a lady named Yezernia.  As you find out later in the book, she goes by many different names, and you learn how she takes place in all of this.  It also follows a scientist whose name is Blake.  He is looking for every answer he can find, and by some chance he gets hold of this book and finds out that there is a comet named Wormwood that is coming towards the Earch.  If it hits it will poison all of our water, and bring destruction to the whole world.  There are tons of mystical creatures, suspense, action, and even a little bit of humor.  There are even angels!  If you’re looking for a book that you don’t want to put down, this is the perfect one.Seth P. – 8th grade
