Mystery and supernatural suspense follow when a family moves into the "perfect" home, only to find a haunted house riddled with mishaps and mayhem in a sequel to "Shadow Child." This description may be from another edition of this product.
Great book by a really great author. I don not usually like sequels but this is the exception to the rule. The Gentrys are spooky and then you add a character like Joe Grant to the mix and it really makes it scary.
Great book by a great writer

Guardian Angels is one of those rare books that lives up to the cliche "page turner". I rarely read novels in a single day but this book was so engaging and entertaining I read it in a single sitting. It has everything a good horror novel should have. Chills, thrills, a neat plot, and likeable, smart characters. Highly recommended. When are you going to write a new book, Mr. Citro? Don't leave us hanging any longer!
What Really Does go Bump in the Night?

In Citro's second novel of the Gentry, he gets very much involved with the surroundings of the woods, that one is able to actually be horrified at being lost in the woods with the characters of this story. A fantastic story line that will keep anyone addicted to finding out if the Gentry will continue to terrify and ask one question: What is reality?

Living in Vermont, In the same enviornment as Citro's setting, it is difficult to look accross the field from my kitchen window and not think of the Gentry. Leads you to question the foundation of your own reality
Spooky

I had a hard time putting this book down because it was just so flat-out spooky. Granted, the premise is absurd, but if you want reality, watch the news. This is a great story that kept me up late into the night. While I'm not a big fan of teenagers as protagonists, this works fairly well b/c Citro treats him as a real person as opposed to a stereotype. If you like horror stories, you will love this.
