Shadow Wrack - (Eldritch Manor) by Kim Thompson (Paperback)

About the Book

"After battling and defeating the forces of darkness, Willa is looking forward to a little well-earned peace and quiet. Unfortunately, her recent adventures have given birth to new problems, not the least of which is the task of rebuilding Eldritch Manor, a retirement home for supernatural beings, from the ground up. And no one is behaving themselves: Mab' s fairies have declared war on the dwarf construction crew, Willa' s Mom and Belle are feuding, Baz is running amok, Horace is living in the woods, the phoenix squawks all night long, and there' s never a dragon around when you need one. To be perfectly honest, Willa is starting to think the forces of darkness were easier to handle than her family and friends-- until those forces start to ise again!"--Page 4 of cover.

Book Synopsis

After the events of Eldritch Manor, Willa just wants peace and quiet, but the burned-down old house is only creating more problems. The old folks are restless, the magical groups are fighting with each other, and Willa's attempts to "fix" her family aren't going well at all. The forces of darkness were easier to handle!

Review Quotes

Shadow Wrack would be enjoyed primarily by girls ages 8-12 who are interested in fantasy stories, especially books with fairies.

A must-purchase where there are fans of the first book and a solid series addition to most middle grade fantasy collections.

This fast paced, often wildly amusing novel will grip the intended audience...an inspiring novel that will attract both girls and boys who will be unable to put it down.
