INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Moriarty, Chris

The Watcher in the Shadows

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Mark Edward Geyer. Moriarty (The Inquisitor's Apprentice) returns to his alternate early-twentieth-century New York, where magic and traditional Judaism are the major forces. In solving the murder of the Klezmer King, Sacha once again faces dark magic and must decide whether to defy his upbringing and use his own magical gifts. Occasional line drawings enhance the novel's evocation of setting, which is its greatest strength.
