Storm Runners Book 2: The Surge ReviewBy This Kid Reviews Books! Find me on the web!
You may think that if you're a kid in the middle of a hurricane - your bus crashed, you nearly drowned, you survived an alligator attack, and everything is flooding - that things can't get much worse, right? Wrong. Chase, Nicole, and Rashawn thought the answer was "right."

Chase, his Dad and, Tomas, his Dad's partner, travel to where natural disasters happen and make their living by helping to rebuild after the disaster happens. Chase's father always made sure he was away from the center of the disasters, but this time the storm shifted! Now Chase and his friends, Nicole and Rashawn are in the middle of it! They thought they were safe when they reached Nicole's house but her family owns a farm but this is no ordinary farm. It is a farm where Nicole's family keeps their circus animals when they are not traveling with the circus and now some of the animals are loose. An angry leopard, that could kill them with a pounce, is running amuck and a lion that just mauled its trainer is loose, too. To top things off, the SURGE from lake water is flooding the farm. They are cold, wet, hungry, hurt and may be cat food! Will they survive the hurricane?

This book is the 2nd book in the series and it was even better than the first one (Storm Runners)! The 3rd book is called "Eruption" and it will be published March 12, 2012 (AHK! TOO LONG TO WAIT!). I like Tomas the best because he seems like a great friend, especially to John and Chase Masters (Tomas is John's best friend and business partner). I recommend "The Surge" to fans of adventure, action, thrills, and Roland Smith. The book is very suspenseful and you never exactly know what's going to happen next! I already pre-ordered my copy of Eruption, I'm not going to tell you how Chase's day gets EVEN worse but I'll give you a hint -think VOLCANO!

After reading a bunch of Mr. Smith's books (Legwork, Cryptid Hunters, Tentacles, The Storm Runners Series) Roland Smith has become one of my favorite authors. I am going to read some more of his older books!
Storm Runners Book 2: The Surge OverviewMaster of middle-grade adventure Roland Smith returns with a second installment in this fast-paced action series.
Chase and his friends Nicole and Rashawn have just survived Hurricane Emily, the storm of the century, but their troubles are just beginning. Though they've made it to the safety of Nicole's family's farm -- the winter home of the Rossi Brothers Circus -- the flood waters are rising and they need to reach higher ground. The circus's lions have escaped their cages, and a mean and unpredicable leopard is also on the loose. And then, of course, there's the problem of the wildlife preserve next door! Have Chase and his friends lived through a terrifying night only to face a new danger?

Tempest ReviewI really enjoyed this book. I cold not put it down. I liked the theory about the Tempest. I hope to hear more from this author. I would reccomend this book to Young adult and adult readers.
First we have Janelle who you can't help but root for. She moves to Florida and all of a sudden she is very strong and strange things are happening to her when she touches ocean water. She has a birth right that her mother expects her to follow through with but she does not want to. When she moves to Flordia it happens to be during Hurricane Gary.Then we meet Gary who lives with his Guardian. He is sixteen. And happens to come out of the eye of the Hurricane. He ends up in a hospital and on the run from his guardian. Where he seems to run into Janelle alot.
This story has love, action, adventure. Alittle bit of everything. I could not get the story out of my mind when I was not reading it. I hope to see a sequel in the future.Tempest OverviewBook 1 of the Destroyers SeriesSixteen-year-old Janelle never thought the gray spiral birthmark on her arm meant anything special. That is, until she meets Gary, a boy her age with a birthmark exactly like hers. Gary's attractive, brooding, and perfectly normal...except for the fact that he materialized out of a dangerous hurricane right in front of her. Janelle's certain of only one thing. Gary's mark-and hers, too-mean something, but he's reluctant to tell her what. At last she squeezes the truth from Gary about their markings. And the truth is utterly terrifying: Janelle and Gary are more connected to the destructive power of nature than she ever dreamed possible. And learning the truth about herself is only the start of her nightmare. 2010 Amazon Breatkthrough Novel Awards Semifinalist"Meteorology may seem an odd literary motivation, but this novel puts weather at the center of a solid fantasy-adventure."--Publishers Weekly

Dragon Weather (Obsidian Chronicles) ReviewLawrence Watt-Evans seems to be below the radar among fantasy writers these days. I can't imagine why -- his post-Ethshar novels ("Dragon Weather" and "Touched by the Gods") have each been gripping reworkings of tried-and-true fantasy themes.
In the case of "Dragon Weather," it's the old young-man-grows-up-and-avenges-wrongs formula, but Watt-Evans manages to breathe his own fresh life into it. Especially refreshing (well, maybe that's not the right word) is the casual brutality he brings into it -- diseased and maimed people fill the pages, much as one would actually expect in a barbaric pre-technological world.
Sure, some of the plot points are seen kind of early, but Watt-Evans even manages to bring them around in a refreshing way, even going so far as to pull a triple-cross on the reader at one point.
The ending suggests a sequel to the point that "To Be Continued" might as well have appeared beneath the last few lines. We can but hope.Dragon Weather (Obsidian Chronicles) Overview
