But faced with a powerful water witch; Bill makes a fatal error; leaving Tom to face his enemies alone. Can the Spook get there in time to save his apprentice? Or will his own mistakes give final victory to the dark? Spook’s series by Joseph Delaney, is an amazing work of fiction. The reader simply gets smitten by the magical work of this British writer. I started reading the Wardstone Chronicles and couldn’t put it down till I hadn’t finished all the books in the series. When I had finished the Wardstone Chronicles I craved for more, I was sad that they ended. Then one day I was searching for books on an online store that I stumbled across the Starblade Chronicles (this is trilogy, of the further encounters of Tom Ward; the main character) Oh! How happy I was, and this was not the end then came Brother Wulf, I was more than pleased. The plots were very intriguing and complete, and the best parts were the twists. The twists were on another level. They were beyond prediction. I am a slow reader but when the writer was building up for a scary or deadly scene, my speed increased considerably and I’d realise this after the scene ended! I couldn’t find any holes on the plot and wasn’t bored for a second when I was reading. The characters were build quiet efficiently and left an imprint of their appearance on my imagination, so much so that they were nearly alive! In nutshell; it was complete and amazing. Adriana: a bird witch on the Isle of Mona who allies herself with Ward, Gregory, and Alice Deane and helps thwart/kill Lizzie. Talkus the Unborn: a new Kobalos God who takes over the Fiend's place as the strongest dark entity after Ward kills the Fiend.

Yes I have and I like it a lot, but I miss Tom and Alice and was also disappointed that we didn’t see more of why Alice did the things she did that were so out of character for her. The explanation she gave in dark army was totally incomplete and didn’t explain the things she said in fury of the seventh son, could we see more from her mind in the future? I like the new series but it’s no comparison to Tom’s story which was just really brilliant. I really hope you at some point reconsider and write more books about Tom and Alice, they’re so good and they also have so much more to explore about them, is Tom part of the dark now and why did Alice do the things she did and so many other questions. I bet a ton of fans would love a last Tom and Alice book to answer some of the hanging questions and finish their story. It feels unfinished and unsettled because it seems like you rushed the Starblade Chronicles, especially dark assassin. Anyways, thank you for those incredible characters and I hope you think about it! Many people would love just one more book to complete the story. Stay healthy

I really like the Spook’s books and they are my new favorite but I have a few questions regrading witches.
