Courtesy of Teens Read TooPar TeensReadTooDo you believe in witches or the Old Ones?Matt has been accused of committing a crime which actually he really didn't do. So now he has a choice to either go to jail or stay with an old lady named Mrs. Deverill in a remote area called Lesser Malling because of the government's new law called the LEAF Project. Matt should have chosen jail because he will soon find out that someone is planning something there at Lesser Malling, and Matt is in the middle of all the commotion.Matt's past hasn't been the best. His parents died in a car crash six years ago and he has been living with his mom's stepsister, who doesn't necessarily treat him very well. But Matt has discovered that he has some kind of weird magical power--but doesn't know what it is.When he gets to Mrs. Deverill's house he isn't treated in the best way possible. Even though he thinks the food is good he has to do chores and basically clean up all of Mrs. Deverill's property. After a while he has had enough of this bizarre nonsense and wants to leave, because this was supposed to be a volunteer act.But when he tries to take a bike out to the main road back to Greater Malling and then back to London, every road he takes just brings him back to the place he started from. Well, he went home after that, and thought that he'd try the next day.When coming back to the same spot, a guy named Tom Burgess appears and says he wants to help Matt out because this isn't a safe place to be. He also says that he will explain everything tomorrow at his farm, but what Matt doesn't know is that he will find Tom dead the next day.After Tom's death things got even worse. Mrs. Deverill starts to come out more strongly and everyone that tries to help him get out of this creepy place just ends up dead. Is Matt's new helper bound to turn up dead, too?Find out! Read the book.I think this book is incredible!! Once you start reading you can't stop! This book has a twist at every turn. I recommend this book to anybody interested in books like the Harry Potter series--it's just so magnificent!!Reviewed by: Spreeha Présentation de l'éditeurMatt has always known he has unusual powers. Raised in foster care, he is sent to Yorkshire on a rehabilitation programme, only to find himself in the midst of sinister goings-on. Matt investigates and uncovers a terrible secret – eight guardians are protecting the world from the Old Ones, beings banished long ago by five children. But devil worshippers want to let the Old Ones back in...From School Library JournalGrade 9 Up-At the outset of this first book in Anthony Horowitz's latest series (Scholastic, 2005), 14-year-old Matt is arrested at the scene of an electronics warehouse break-in. Soon, he's remanded to the home of a crone in a country village. She's ornery, but the village is out and out creepy: he can't find a road that goes anywhere but in a circle and it seems everyone to whom he turns for help winds up dead. Horowitz's Alex Rider books presented the boy against the system of national espionage. Matt's situation is even worse-his opponents are witches. Simon Prebble's pacing as Matt struggles from quicksand, is chased by dinosaurs through the Natural History Museum, and finds himself about to be sacrificed by the coven in a secluded wood remains agonizingly steady, wringing every drop of horror from the author's carefully drawn plot in this fantasy set in modern times.-Francisca Goldsmith, Berkeley Public Library, CA Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.Booklist*Starred * Gr. 5-8. Horowitz, fresh off his success with his Alex Rider series, ratchets things up a notch with the first in the Gatekeepers series about five young people who must save the world from evil. A master of edge-of-your-seat writing, Horowitz gives himself lots of opportunity to push the envelope here. He focuses on 14-year-old Matt, a troubled orphan who is in with the wrong crowd. As punishment for being present during an assault, Matt must choose between life with off-putting Mrs. Deverill in a remote Yorkshire village, or jail. As Matt soon learns, Lesser Malling is much worse than jail, because strange and dangerous things are occurring there. Raven's Gate, an ancient portal to the world of evil, is about to be opened, and Matt is to be the blood sacrifice. Novels about boys (and girls) facing dark forces are nothing new, and this one certainly contains elements of familiar stories (Hello, Harry Potter). But the real-world setting gives this an extra frisson of horror, and Horowitz's vivid descriptions are not for the fainthearted. It's what's inside all the thrills, however, that makes the book so strong: characters that readers will care about and root for. There will be an eager audience for the next in the series, to be titled Evil Star. Ilene CooperCopyright © American Library Association.

  • The House of Silk by Anthony Horowitz It Is 1890
    The House of Silk by Anthony Horowitz It is 1890. A year after Sherlock Holmes's death, Watson – now in a retirement home – narrates a tale of Sherlockian detection that could tear apart the very fabric of society. The story opens with a train robbery in Boston, and moves to the innocuous setting of Wimbledon. Why you'll like it: Historical mystery, intricately plotted, fast-paced, suspenseful. About the Author: Author and television scriptwriter Anthony Horowitz was born in Stanmore, England on April 5, 1956. He writes mostly children's books, including the Alex Rider series, The Power of Five series, and the Diamond Brothers series. He also writes novels for adults including The Killing Joke and The Magpie Murders. He has created Foyle's War and Midsomer Murders for television as well as written episodes for Poirot and Murder Most Horrid. (Bowker Author Biography) Questions for Discussion 1. Do you think that you need to have read the original Sherlock Holmes novels to enjoy The House of Silk? Do you feel that the new author set the tone of the book correctly? Did Horowitz bring a new dimension to the characters? 2. Holmes's way of looking at people, making a grand statement and then explaining it based on his observations, is meant to convey to you the idea that he sees things that you, the reader, cannot see and from these observations he makes calculated guesses based on his knowledge, which you do not share. Does that still work now, that we have televised sleuthing and we are used to seeing the evidence that the detective sees? 3.

    FUNERAL VOICES When the doorbell rings at three in the morning, it’s never good news. Alex Rider was woken by the first chime. His eyes flickered open but for a moment he stayed completely still in his bed, lying on his back with his head resting on the pillow. He heard a bed- room door open and a creak of wood as somebody went downstairs. The bell rang a second time and he looked at the alarm clock glowing beside him. 3.02 a.m. There was a rattle as someone slid the security chain off the front door. He rolled out of bed and walked over to the open window, his bare feet pressing down the carpet pile. The moonlight spilled on to his chest and shoulders. Alex was fourteen, already well- built, with the body of an athlete. His hair, cut 9 short apart from two thick strands hanging over his forehead, was fair. His eyes were brown and serious. For a moment he stood silently, half- hidden in the shadow, looking out. There was a police car parked outside. From his second-floor window Alex could see the black ID number on the roof and the caps of the two men who were stand- ing in front of the door. The porch light went on and, at the same time, the door opened. “Mrs Rider?” “No. I’m the housekeeper. What is it? What’s happened?” “This is the home of Mr Ian Rider?” “Yes.” “I wonder if we could come in…” And Alex already knew.

    RAVENS GATE PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Anthony Horowitz | 270 pages | 15 Nov 2006 | Scholastic US | 9780439680097 | English | New York, United States Ravens Gate PDF Book Was this review helpful to you? Creepy things did happen, but all the way through the book I felt disconnected with everything that happened, it definitely wasn't John Saul or Stephen King bone chilling, not all. I will say 1. The only thing I'd warn parents about is that there's a lot of violence in the book, with one character dying graphically in the course of the book. But there was something missing. Soon birds start falling from the sky, water begins mysteriously drying up, strange radio problems start popping up, strange lights amid people disappearing, and most of all people and animals start acting more viciously all of a sudden. Close Menu. Raven's Gate is the re-written form of The Devil's Door Bell published , I can't comment on what has and hasn't changed in the text of this version and Anthony Horowitz 's book published over twenty years ago. Marsh is about to stab the knife into Matt when Matt uses his powers to stop the knife. They then go back to Richard's house in York. Sep 28, Leslie Mansilla rated it it was amazing. This book is fast-paced suspenseful, and just awesome! Matt visits his house the next day and finds Tom Burgess murdered, with the words "Raven's Gate" painted on the wall in green.
