The Last Apprentice Soul Stealers, Derek Hood

This book is a fictional story. I chose this book just for fun the last time we were in the library. I saw that it was one of the newest book in the library, so i decided to try it. The title also graded my attention. I'm not one it read a book with a person dressed like a devil the cover. The words " The Last Apprentice" caught my eye, and I thought that was a good story line; of a master training an apprentice.

The story takes place in a small town near theme frame of after the Civil War. The main character Tom is an apprentice to a Spook. A spook is a person who takes the job to kill ghost and demons. The two are starting to head out to there winter house to protect to country side the winter.To where they find the main conflict in the story.

The mans name was Morgan, a failed apprentice of the spooks, is looking for revenge. Later in the book he steals Tom and a powerful book which can summon the ancient winter god, Goliath. The spook them saves the bay and kills the god before he can come to life again. Then leaves a cliff hanger for the next book in the three part series, this being the first. If you are one who likes a good fantasy of adventure then this is a book for you.

Arther Q

When the mother left she gave her room, that was full of all her teasers from her home land, her gave it to Tom. she didn't say what was in the boxes, but she said not to open them Until she left for her country. The book ended before he could go to the house the next day to check so I need to go find the next one!


3. what inspired you to write this book? The Arthur did a great job of describing out the scenery of the country side and of the different places, and people. Also the story line kept me wanting to read more and more until I finished it.
