Review: The Shadow Tribe: The Son of a Soldier

The Shadow Tribe: The Son of a Soldier The Shadow Tribe: The Son of a Soldier by Jaffrey Clark
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Son of a Soldier by Jaffrey Clark is the third book in The Shadow Tribe series. Joby and Tara team up with Mickam to try to find the answers they need to solve their mystery.

I read the first three books and found The Shadow Tribe to be a quite engaging series. With wonderful writing, Clark has a way of bringing his characters to life and making us care for them. We see their struggles and feel their torment. While the series starts out with us meeting Joby, we are introduced to an array of wonderful, and not so wonderful people. The setting is like any other city that has its wealthy and poor, but Clark puts you in that city as if you were actually living there yourself.

With great descriptions, Clark's imagination and character development takes us into Joby's world. Full of mystery and intrigue, and did I forget to mention magic? Yes, magic, as with a lot of fantasy, Clark adds an element of magic that I've not read about bringing something new to the genre. I highly recommend this series to middle graders and adults alike.
