Horowitz (the Alex Rider series) unveils a thoroughly creepy new tale with this first entry in the Gatekeepers series. The novel opens as 14-year-old Matt Freeman reluctantly helps an older friend Continue reading » I'd really not got on with the Anthony Horowitz books I'd read up until this one, but because he seems to be one of the few authors my 8-year-old son will let me read to him, I've had to persist - and whatever I may think of Horowitz, I have to give him credit for helping prevent my son being completely turned off reading! The Switch is a brilliant book. My favourite part is when he gets his body switched over because of a wishing star that turns green and he wakes up as Bob. He doesn't know where the hell he is so he trys to escape the caravan. Rain is everywhere in the run down theme park My LEAST favourite part is when they go in the mirror maze and almost get themselves KILLED. This may sound funny, but I personally screamed when it happened so I rated it 3 stars.

Only instead of physically exchanging places with each other the characters manage to perform a bit of Freaky Friday magic on themselves and teleport their souls into each other's bodies. A simple enough plot that is complicated by the intelligence of one of the boys participating (unwittingly) in the exchange. What follows the Switch is a series of plots that thrust both boys into hitherto unknown territory, which they manage to navigate relatively unscathed, at east mentally.For Tad Spencer, only son of a fabulously wealthy businessman, every day is like Christmas. He lives in a mansion, has a maid, servants, every toy imaginable. He has it all - until the day he wishes he was someone else.

Jacobi, whose readings of many of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories have been impressive, more than does justice to Horowitz’s standout pastiche, easily one of the best ever attempted. The dark and Continue reading » This story was so much more than I thought it was going to be! I thought it would be your regular "Freaky Friday" body-swap thing with the pathetic rich kid having to learn how to live without his precious wealth. But wow! I was completely surprised at the turn the plot took, and the intricacies of the story. Even the smallest details took on a major significance as the truth behind Tad's wealthy family is exposed. However through his new persona he finds out information about his real parents that makes a bit of fairground scamming seem small fry indeed, and Tad begins to wonder if he ever wants to return to his former life.
