Jack: Secret Circles

Young Repairman Jack Series, Book 2

De: F. Paul Wilson

Narrado por: Alexander Cendese

When his 5-year-old neighbor goes missing, Jack can't help feeling responsible. He should have taken Cody home when he found him riding his bicycle near the Pine Barrens. And then a lost man wanders out of the woods after being chased all night by...something.

Jack knows, better than anyone, that the Barrens are dangerous - a true wilderness filled with people, creatures, and objects lost from sight and memory. Like the ancient, 15-foot-tall stone pyramid he, Weezy, and Eddie discover. Jack thinks it might have been a cage of some sort, but for what kind of animal, he can't say. Eddie jokes that it could have been used for the Jersey Devil.

Jack doesn't believe in that old folk tale, but something is roaming the Pines. Could it have Cody? And what about the strange circus that set up outside town? Could they be involved? So many possibilities, so little time...

Juvenile with good character development

3.5 stars

In this second volume of the series, we get a minor plot of a missing young boy and continue the overarching plot of strange things in the pine barrents.

Again, the characters are well realized and draw a believable picture of typical small town life in the early '80s. The minor plot is introduced early on, then mostly abandoned, then picked up rather too conveniently near the end of the book. With this plot, we definitely get some unambiguous evidence of abnormal goings on.a

The overarching plot gets more detail as well, but the details don't add up to anything even resembling answers to major questions.

Like the first book, this is much better on character and setting than on plot.
