Hunterland

Description Hunterland by Dana Claire


Supernatural meets Nancy Drew in Dana Claire’s New Young Adult Novel Hunterland

Liam Hunter has warded off hungry vampires, slayed monstrous beasts, and put agonized spirits to rest since he could hold a stake. When trouble comes through the Hunterland message board, alerting them that nurses are dying at high schools across Wisconsin in a string of fishy “suicides,” the Hunter family hits the road to save the
day.

The trail leads to Falkville Falls, where Liam clashes with Olivia Davis, whose maddening family seems inexplicably embroiled in this haunting mess. Olivia has always mothered her little sister, Pepper. But when the Hunter family opens her eyes to the hidden underworld of real monsters prowling the dark, she realizes she can’t protect Pepper from this newest threat by herself. Can the two families work together to uncover who or what is responsible before the next murder, or will this vicious death cycle have no end?

Grab your stakes and your rock salt. Monster hunting class is in session.

Review Hunterland by Dana Claire


Guest Review by Mark

A wickedly fun read for fans of supernatural, ‘Hunterland,’ by Dana Claire is exactly the kind of book that you pick up on a whim and end up devouring in one day.

Olivia is a pretty normal girl living in a small town in Wisconsin, picking up after her rebellious younger sister and still coping with the death of her mother.

Liam Hunter lives a fast-paced, action-packed life on the road, hunting and killing monsters with his father and younger sister.

The Hunter family comes to Olivia’s town to find the monster that has killed three people, but they have no idea what type of monster it is. When Liam and Olivia meet for the first time, he runs into her house with a shotgun and shoots her dresser. Obviously, she’s a bit confused by this. Even more confusing? The fact that her police officer father seems determined to work with Liam and his family in order to track down the mysterious killer.

Just who and what the killer wants is a supernatural puzzle of the highest variety, and one that will take both Olivia’s family and Liam’s to solve.

In the end, things come to a head in a most unexpected way that had me turned pages almost faster than I could read.

Claire has an almost hypnotic tone of writing. She creates an entire world for the reader very quickly, and one that makes you almost feel as though you’ve been there before, even when you know you haven’t.

The romance plot in this was right up my alley and, as a lover of paranormal books, I have to say I enjoyed every minute of this! I hope that Claire writes more like this in the future! But I will be glad to read anything else that she writes, as well.

Excerpt Hunterland by Dana Claire

Besides two humble pickup trucks, the only other vehicle in the gravel lot was an abandoned bus with broken windows, sitting lopsided on two flat tires by the dumpster. As dusk fell, the lights hanging over the entrance switched on, flickering like a candle’s flame. This place screamed vamp feeding ground. No prying eyes. No town ties. No one to look for the missing. Sure, a vamp couldn’t just walk in and attack, but the tree-lined perimeter, inadequate lighting, and dead roadway made for easy pickings. Dad had the right idea.

We were about to enter through the attached coffee shoppe’s door when a woman’s scream echoed around the corner. I took off in a full-on sprint. 

“Liam, wait,” Dad yelled.

My leather jacket moved with my screaming muscles. The serum shot I’d finally given myself this morning coursed through my bloodstream, and I flew, my legs pushing to their ultimate limits. The bite of cold air against my skin woke my senses as I charged into the clearing behind the building. The cry came again, and I pinpointed the direction.

My boots churned up frozen mud as I raced into the thick trees. Shadows darted in front of me—here one second, gone the next. I twisted my head to follow, and a hand grabbed me in a bone-crushing grip. Claws pierced my jacket, stinging my skin, and launched me clear across the wood line. I face-planted into the freezing, hard ground, reminding me of my one miserable attempt at ice skating. The impact jammed my spine, like I’d taken a hammer between the shoulder blades, and clacked my teeth together. I rolled to distribute the blow and stood. 

Ten feet away, Dad raised a stake, eyes dilated and shining from the adrenaline high. I started toward him, but he yelled, “Stop!” With his head, he motioned to the ground between us.

Skidding to a halt, I stood over a figure in the grass. 

We were too late.

The Osprey Man

Description Osprey Man by Christopher Tuthill


Jacob is at that most magical time between childhood and adolescence. As the end of the school year approaches, he is dreaming of baseball and the beach, but most of all, about working on the comic book he and his best friend Jonathan have created, The Osprey Man. Then tragedy strikes and Jacob has to find an inner strength he is not sure he has.

This beautifully written tale of youth, coping, and working through grief is ideal for readers of all ages.

Review Osprey Man by Christopher Tuthill


Guest Review by Mark

A novel perfect for Young Adults, ‘The Osprey Man,’ by Christopher Tuthill is a story about a young man on the starting edge of puberty who suffers a great loss that he will never forget.

Jacob is just getting out of the fourth grade and starting a summer full of possibilities, when he hears the news that his best friend has been killed in an accident. Jon was the same age as Jacob and the idea that his friend could be gone forever is both startling and devastating for the boy, especially so soon after Jacob lost his younger brother to cancer.

Now Jacob feels lost, and unsure of whether he should continue the comic book that he and Jon were working on. The comic book, Osprey Man, is about a superhero who stops poachers from killing animals. Jacob was supposed to write it, while Jon was creating the illustrations. Eventually, Jacob decides to continue working on the comic and asks for the help of a friend named Kris to do so. But Kris’ older brother provides an obstacle, as he seems to make it his mission in life to bully the two younger boys every chance that he gets.

Between this and Jacob’s new part-time job cleaning up at the pizzeria, the summer of 1984 is a busy and tough one. But will it be possible for Jacob and Kris to finish the comic? You have to read the book to find out the answer to that question!

‘The Osprey Man,’ was a highly enjoyable novel, and a wonderfully nostalgic look back at the eighties. Tuthill’s writing was genuine, heartfelt and skilled. I really felt for Jacob and his loss and I wanted him to succeed from the get-go. This is a five-star book that can be enjoyed by any and all readers!
