Flight by Jason Lethcoe
Lethcoe, Jason. Flight, 216 pgs. Grosset & Dunlap, 2009. $6.99. Sexual Content-G; Language-G; Violence-G/PG. In the second book of The Mysterious Mr. Spines series, Edward Macleod an awkward 14-year-old with a stutter learns his destiny as the bridge builder between worlds. Whiplash Scruggs and a troop of groundlings try to kidnap Edward and instead capture Mr. Spines. Edward must learn how to use his new wings and the different powers of a guardian to find a person called Cornelius on his journey to meet his destiny. To assist him is Tabitha, a young haughty guardian, and Bridgette, a girl who isn’t really alive or dead. He must face his worse fears and overcome them. Expect sequels. The book is fast-paced and should appeal to reluctant readers. Purchase if the first book is popular at your library. ADVISABLE – EL. Samantha, Public Librarian.
