The Moon Stealers book 1The Quest for the Silver BoughBy Tim FlanaganRating 4****Well I will say this book was a step out of my usual genres.  The mix of a blend between sci fi with a throwback of King Arthur lore made for an interesting read. As a nurse, the comparisons to the flesh eating bacteria to the ooze found in the book hit a little too close to home.  But for the average boy, especially teen and preteen.....they will be totally enthralled.I found the two underlying storylines a bit distracting at times.  I was much more interest in the quest of Edgar and the kids than I was the investigations by the M16 team.  Both storylines were very detailed and developed, I guess the attraction just depends on the readers personal taste.This book would be great  and enjoyable for the adolescent teen on your list who like sci with a paranormal twist!
