Milo Silk is back with his Nightsider
friends (mythical creatures like dragons, werewolves, and vampires) and still
trying to defeat the alien race who has taken over Earth. This time Milo is in possession
of a crystal egg that the aliens’ henchman, Huntsman, wants. Determined to get
revenge on Milo, the Huntsman has stolen the Heart of Darkness and has teamed
up with a greater, more ancient evil. To make matters worse, the Witch of the
World has disappeared from Milo’s dreams. Can Milo and his friends stop the
Huntsman, the aliens who invaded earth, and from the new evil?
Action-packed from start to
finish, this book pulls the reader into Mil’s world from page one. The
characters are fun, engaging, and well-developed. The descriptions are vivid
and unique. The plot is complex and full of plot twists and turns. Fans of
alien fiction, science fiction, and paranormal fiction will enjoy reading this
book. You will, however, need to read the first book first. EL. MS. ADVISABLE.
