I loved that Smith wrote Izzy as the strength and muscle of the twosome. Born on the same day and raised as neighbors, these two best friends are always looking out for one another.
With the unwavering (and occasionally mysterious) support of his friend Izzy, he must face the danger at the manor as it spreads to the rest of the town.Ĭertainly the best thing about this story is the friendship between these two. But, I enjoyed Smith’s prior book so much I just grabbed it and started reading! Not that I was disappointed – the creek factor in this book was deliciously high.īy the time Rory realizes that his boss is dangerous he leaves his work at the manor and returns to his Mother’s house. I should have known better….or, you know, I could have read the book blurb. I just love when an elderly rich guy adopts a kid and teaches him magic while putting him in the lap of luxury. On the surface, the story of Rory striking out for work to help support his single Mom had me hoping that this would be one of those stories like A Little Princess. This is the second time Smith’s storyline has been nothing like what I expected and for all the right reasons. Since then, I have been meaning to grab all of his other books and I was so happy to find a copy of Gloom Town at my local library. If you haven’t read it yet, do yourself a favor and pick it. Smith was Black Panther: The Young Prince. A boy and girl walk warily away from the house. In the far distance a spooky mansion is being struck by lightning in this sea-side down.
