Product Information

When the bullets hit the float—ghosts appear and begin moving toward the people, but only agents can see this. George dan Flo juga tidak ketinggalan dengan riset cerdasnya George dan gaya ala gelandangannya Flo. As for Lucy, her inner turmoil gets a good number of passages, but it’s told in a delicate, natural way; it’s easy to empathize with her feelings at her estrangement from her family (and even a bit from her friends, too), her confusion at her growing powers, and with the same old painful crush that, at one point or another in life, has made real fools out of all of us. Between the ages seven and nine he was often ill, so he spent most of his days in the hospital or in his bed at home. All of London is upset, and the large Fittes and Rotwell agencies decide to put on a festival to raise everyone’s spirits: “Take Back the Night!

I wanted Stroud to take this a little farther - have Lucy become more isolated and withdrawn, and explore how the Lockwood team would deal with one of their members going off the rails a little bit. She also begins to question her role as a member of the Lockwood team and how the various discoveries and changes taking place throughout the story might affect her relationships with the other agents. But it's also easy to picture the story happening in some kind of steampunk universe, because the world Stroud has built is entirely devoid of pop culture for our fifteen-year-old heroes to reference. and if things weren't hard enough for Lucy, battling ghosts (and Holy for Lockwood's attention), she also has to deal with her talent getting more and more powerful, both helping her colleagues, but also endangering their lives at the same time. He allow this series to remain middle grade (no gore) but still be creepy enough to make you think twice about turning the light off.We all know guys like Lockwood and yes he is awesome and a very cool character, but my heart still beats for George.

I think I love him more with every book and I don’t care if he’s supposed to be the weird kid in the group. It’s really amazing and something completely different to all the other fantasy books I usually read. We could probably get a lot more kids to read if all middle grade books were this exciting, spine-chilling, and intriguing!

After studying English Literature at York University, he moved to London, where he worked as an editor at a publishing firm. Ada bagian melankolisnya yang bikin sedih tapi banyak juga adegan dan percakapan konyol yang bikin ngakak. The tension, sense of danger, and spooky, eerie atmosphere are still there, finely done (although obviously it hasn’t the novelty of the first book), and there are a few hints about a bigger, darker mystery, related to the harp logo.

Meanwhile in flashbacks, Lockwood shares part of his past with Lucy and George by showing them the closed room of the house. The son of the wealthy owner at the time had gone crazy, stabbed a servant, and chased the injured boy up the stairs, from which he had fallen to his death.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Now, every night at midnight, people who can see ghosts—in other words, Children—feel a terrible, frightening presence and see bloody footprints appearing on the stairs.
