The hold section at the Southport branch of the Indianapolis - Marion County Public Library. We have been visiting the library pretty often lately. Doug has been checking out landscaping books, I have been checking out scrapbooking and recipe books, and the boys have been checking out whatever interests them...for Kaleb that means cook books and movies and for Kaden that is movies and anything else he likes at the moment.
On this particular day I was picking up a book called "Revenge of the Shadow King" by Derek Benz and J. S. Lewis. This is the 1st in an almost 4-book series...I say "almost" because book #4 is in the editing process right now and apparently there are still 2 books to follow after that. The series is the Grey Griffins and is about 4 friends living in a small Minnesota town. They enjoy playing a science fiction card game but things start getting really strange when the creatures from the cards seem to have come to life and are in the lead character's back yard.
Jon Lewis, who I went to high school with, is one of the authors. I found out about this book after signing up for Facebook and getting in touch with old friends from Johnston High School. After finding out that he wrote this book and that it is geared to 8-12 year olds we checked it out from the library. The boys have enjoyed the story so far and think it's neat that I went to school with the author.
