Reseñas de la Crítica

"In Skeleton Tower, Jason's parents have decided to move yet again to work as caretakers at a historical lighthouse on the coast. Jason is surprised when strange things start happening until he learns of a shipwreck and hidden diary that may hold the clues to a curse. With the help of his sister and the ghost of a long-dead lighthouse keeper, Jason discovers that the only way to break the curse is to risk his life to save the life of another. The Atlas of Cursed Places is a horror series with suspenseful plots and cliff-hangers at the end of every chapter. Geared toward struggling and reluctant readers and written at a fourth-grade reading level, this six-book series is a good alternative to other hi-lo series such as the Bluford series. Older readers might find the plots and characters somewhat hollow and unrealistic; however, this series fills a niche for readers who need a stepping-stone series to engage them in reading." (VOYA)
