One Of the Great Sagas

His girlfriend is killed by a spider, his parents are killed by wild hogs, a bully is killed by leeches, ect. Luke then decides enough is enough and he has his sister thrown in an asylum. Later that night he realizes that he might have made a mistake, it may not be Leah after all who is responsible for all the killings.

One of the best sagas.

A Typical R.L. Stine book

A short read. Took me about an hour to read. Leah Fier has a power to control animals. When strange things start to happen to people who are close to Leah's sister, Luke he realizes that Leah may be using her powers for evil. His girlfriend is killed by a spider, his parents are killed by wild hogs, a bully is killed by leeches, ect. Luke then decides enough is enough and he has his sister thrown in an asylum. Later that night he realizes that he might have made a mistake, it may not be Leah after all who is responsible for all the killings.

It seems as though you're in the book while reading it!

Hello! My name is Marissa. I'm almost 15 years old. I was assigned to read this book for literature class at school two days ago. We have to finish reading it in four days but the auther in this book makes you imagine everything thats going on as if you were there, inside the book everything instead of reading it. So I finish the book just today. The last two paragraphs you need to finish, no matter how much you have to go somewhere or do something, you just have to know what is going to happen next before you close the book. There is no pictures in this book but like i said, the auther made it so easy for me to imagine what the characters looked like and what the rest of the story looked like wether it was two people walking down a street or a house burning. I really do recommend this book to all ages. It doesnt matter how old you are I still think you will enjoy this book if you give it a chance and read all of it. Especially the end, I'ts really exciting.

The storyline is great ,however it has an unexpected ending.
