Customer Reviews

Exciting series for Tween-agers that is (

There are SO many novels for kids about sorcerers, witches, vampires and the like that books based around magic must be like a no-brainer fall back position for publishers. But there's hope! Try this Traces series of novels. My [...] son read them all in quick order and talked his [...] sister into trying them and she loves these books. The stories take place in an alternate reality - same timeline as ours but a world where cats and dogs are endangered, technology is far more advanced and the police have robot partners. The heroes are a crime solving team: a [...] forensic investigator and his robot sidekick. My son says he likes the books because of the plot twists and humor throughout. Thank you, Mr. Rose, for actually being inventive and writing these captivating books that aren't sorcery driven.
