The world is changing: the government has seized control of every aspect of society, and now, kids are disappearing. For 15-year-old Wisty and her older brother Whit, life turns upside down when they are torn from their parents one night and slammed into a secret prison for no reason they can comprehend. The New Order, as it is known, is clearly trying to suppress Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Being a Normal Teenager. But while trapped in this totalitarian nightmare, Wisty and Whit discover they have incredible powers they'd never dreamed of.

I was mistaken when I bought this book series as I thought it was written for adults. This a series for young teens. I find the story line just ok and drags at points during the story.

The hardscrabble folks of Troublesome Creek have to scrap for everything - everything except books, that is. Thanks to Roosevelt's Kentucky Pack Horse Library Project, Troublesome's got its very own traveling librarian, Cussy Mary Carter. Cussy's not only a book woman, however, she's also the last of her kind, her skin a shade of blue unlike most anyone else. Not everyone is keen on Cussy's family or the Library Project, and a Blue is often blamed for any whiff of trouble.

Enjoyable book with historical information

I so enjoyed this book and the main character “book woman” as some folks called her. The characters are written in a way that I looked forward in each chapter to as the writer provided more about them and their hard life in Eastern Kentucky. Wonderful book that I will be checking to see what other books were written by this author. Narrator Katie Schorr did a outstanding job.

Over priced short story
Reviewed: 10-09-18
This is over priced for such a short story. I also felt this story was more for the young teen age group readers. I do not plan to be reading any of the other books in this series.

Reviewed: 09-27-18
I enjoyed the book but was a bit disappointed by Todd McLaren’s narrative performance. His narrative of the different male characters was very good but when it came to the female characters his narrative of female voices was distracting from the story, at least for myself.

Outstanding Audible Book
Reviewed: 08-28-18
I have always enjoyed reading a James Patterson books. Very good writing between Patterson and Michael Ledwidge. I really liked this first story about the character Michael Bennett, his family and his grandfather. Story plot was interesting and I liked that the book didn’t leave you hanging were you had to buy the next book in the series. I do plan to read the other books in the Michael Bennett series. What made this audible book standout was the use of two narrators to tell this story. Narrators John Slater and Reg Rogers made this a outstanding book to listen too.

The Elven a long long story
Reviewed: 08-04-18
I heard this story through Audible and at times realized it was a mistake as there were too many names that were so similar that it made the story hard to follow at times. Too many battles that seem to drag out. I have the second book in this series but will not bother to read since I didn’t care for the first book that much.

What would you do if you discovered you were a witch? That's exactly what happens to private investigator Jill Gooder. And as if that wasn't enough, she has a serial killer to catch. More magic, mystery, and laughs than you can shake a stick at.

Thought this novel was good book for the younger teenagers. I got to the point I had to make myself finish this book. Also didn’t like the ending that requires you to read the next book.
