A children's book but also suitable for grown-ups! I accidentally stumbled over the first book and couldn't put it down. A little bit of Harry Potter but with lots of magic of its own. You get caught between were-wolf children, flying children and other endowed children (and adults!) who can do astounding things - the best thing is, that they keep yout imagination up and running from the first to the last page!! Read it and you know what I mean!

When I first saw the book, I thought it`s just a book for children, but my friend had already read it, so I decided to read it, either. And I must say, I was really surprised! Who likes Harry Potter will also like Charlie Bone and read his adventures! It`s a really good book for fantasyfans!

Ich bin nur durch Zufall auf dieses Buch gestoßen und oh mein Gott ich liebe es. Das ist Band 1 von insgesamt 8 Bändern. Die Hauptperson der Bücher ist....Charlie Bone. Er ist ein normaler Junge der mit seiner Mutter Amy, seinen zwei Omas Maisie und Grizelda und seinem Onkel Paton zusammen lebt, sein Vater Lyell ist schon lange Tod. Eines Tages jedoch hört er plötzlich Stimmen aus einem Foto und plötzlich ändert sich alles für ihn!!

Viele vergleichen Charlie Bone ja immer mit Harry Potter, aber bei sind so verschieden und auch die Handlung der Bücher ist so verschieden. Charlie hat gleich zum Anfang eine Familie die für ihn da ist, wenn man Grizelda und ihre schrecklichen Schwestern ausschließt, und seinen besten Freund Benjamin und dessen Hund Runner Bean.

Auch Mr Onimous und seine drei Katzen sind so toll. Und dann gibt es ja noch die Bösen, dazu gehören Manfred Bloor, seine ganze Familie und Freunde und natürlich Grizelda und ihre schrecklichen Schwestern. Dann gibt es noch Fidelio, Olivia, Gabriel, Asa, Billy, Lysander und noch viele andere, aber da müsst ihr selber heraus finden auf welcher Seite sie stehen.

Fazit: Das Buch ist super spannend, besitzt eine Menge Geheimnisse und es wird einem nie langweilig. Es liest sich super flüssig, ist leicht verständlich und die Handlung und die Figuren harmonieren super miteinander. Auch gut fand ich die Idee das nur wenige Schüler an der Academy Kräfte besitzen, jeder kann was ganz spezielles, und die Anderen da sind weil sie entweder super schlau sind oder das nötige Kleingeld haben. Band 2 kann kommen!!

First of all, the book is soundness, perfectly. *****

The story is great. And not a Harry Potter "copy" at all. Actually it's written years before Harry Potter. :)
In the beginning Charlie find out that he can hear the voices of people at photgraphes.
The story starts rolling when his "evil" grandma found out about it.

short recap:

- he has to go to a residental school, even if he doesn't want to because
- his grandmother is screw out his mother consent
- In the school he meets some people who are gonna get his friends, however
- there are alot of kids and even teachers that tries to get 'em down, even try to kill them in the further books
- He founds out that the evil family "Darkwood" kidnaped a girl and sold it and he tries to get it back because its also a student at the school. But thats not easy at all.
- His father is dead. Well, that's what everyone is thinking, but is it true? Who knows....
- He founds out about the manipulations of his own family and some kids!!!

and so on...it's full of great adventures and a good mix of sad, bad, happy and fantastic storys...The whole story is writen in 8 books...And I loves each page of all of them.

READ IT. You will love every singel page of it.
I can't discribe how great this book it. It's so hard to recap it because it's so full of things i just mention that I would actually have to write the whole book down here :) ***** READ IT... Or something is missing in you life. Best book ever.

I hope this could help you.

Oh and 1 more important thing:
If you click on the pictures below the mainpicture a other frontpicture appears. BUT the frontpicture is the mainpicture which you see can see first if you opened the link to get to this page :) So don't worry.
It's not the horrible red cover, it's the nice blue one :)

Thanks for reading :)
