The Silver Child

192 pp. | Carolrhoda | April, 2005 | Library ISBN 1-57505-825-1 $15.95
(4) 4-6 Silver Sequence series. Four children--Walter, who grows to be twelve feet tall; Freda and Emily, who walk like crabs; Helen, who reads minds--are drawn to the derelict mudflats of Coldharbour where they join forces with a young healer. Something bad is coming, and so far only these children sense it. Despite flat characterization, well-wrought atmospherics permeate this first volume of a projected series.
