Empire of Bones by N.D. Wilson - ADVISABLE

Wilson, N. D. Empire of Bones (Ashtown Burials #3), 438 p.  Random House, 2013.  $17.  

Violence: PG-13 (sorry – getting grittier and the enemies are piling up); Language: G; Mature Content: G  

EL, MS – ADVIABLE

Cyrus and Antigone may have their mother and their older brother back, but nothing else is any good.  They and their friends are on the run from a plethora of enemies.  Ashtown and all of its principles has been betrayed by the lazy, but power-hungry.  Any minute, unspeakable horrors – all of the residents of the Ashtown Burials – are going to unleashed upon an unsuspecting world.  

Wilson has drummed up a pretty disturbing fight.  I really hope there is a fourth book in this series, because there are no tidy endings – only more questions.  Perfect for Riordan fans who are looking for more adventure.
