About the Book (From the Back Cover): Archy The Flying Dragon & The Vampires' Curse is a children's fantasy/adventure... a roller-coaster ride of fun and excitement, where eleven year old Thomas Parkinson and his sister, Suzy, embark on a perilous voyage of discovery, where they confront the most powerful forces of evil and where danger lurks around every mysterious corner.

My impression: It is a good read, and as expected, the forces of good and love win over the forces of evil (which help to bring out the universal love and are not thus really evil!). It being a fantasy, don't expect logic (I had to keep repeating to my grown up adult ego). I could not appreciate the parents flying off to Honolulu leaving the children in that isolated place with their Uncle, but then I am an Indian and my values are different.

Editing and printing: Good.

 

About the author: As per the current trend, there is no information about the author on the book but as a reader, you would like to know a bit more about the author and so here it goes:

 

Alan lives in S. Wales UK with his wife and son. As well as writing for children he enjoys writing for the stage and the screen. He came up with the idea for 'Archy The Flying Dolphin' one sunny afternoon, lazing in the garden with his ginger cat... Archie.

 

Recommendation: It is a good read for children of all ages.

Review by Denise M. Clark- Guest Reviewer The existence of extraterrestrials has long been a subject of heated debate between scientists, scholars and stargazers who've spent many an hour studying the night sky and the universe beckoning beyond. Scientific proof of whether distant life forms and existence are legitimate causes yet an addition bone of contention between UFOlogists and skeptics alike, and while it's easy to make jokes about Area 51 or Roswell, there is certainly a basis for...
