Britfan Wrote:My 14 year old son has finished the book, it took him a while but he is not normally a prolific reader. He enjoyed it, especially the end where Jack sees the klazen.
He definitely wants to read the next one
Best thing is it has got him reading more, he has read 2 Darren Shan Demonata books since finishing SH.

Oh...my...
(JACK at her hospital bad. WEEZY is unconscious)
"It was my fault, Weezy. It was all my fault. But you just wait. When you wake up, I'll be right here. Tell you all about how I paid them back. Paid them back big time!"
WEEZY's FATHER: "Thanks for coming to see her, Jack. But she really has to rest now."
JACK: I know, sir. But I'll be back. That's a promise, sir.

If I remember correctly, Jack was home from college when his mother was killed. So, that makes him at least 18 years old.
