Seizure is a great sequ el that lives up to the promise of the first novel i n the series, and it 's also enough to prompt me to want to hunt out the Bones books.Īlbum (2) Avengers Assemble (1) Bags (1) biscuits (1) Blaine (1) books (316) Canary Wharf (1) Captain America (5) Chris Colfer (7) Christmas (3) cupcakes (1) DVD (7) fairytales (3) Fashion (3) film (18) Food (6) fudge (1) Game of Thrones (24) Glee (46) Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (1) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (1) Harry Potter rewatch (6) Hugh Bonneville (1) ice rinks (2) Idina Menzel (3) Iron Man (2) Jane Austen (1) Jessica Hynes (1) Journalism (7) Kurt (1) London 2012 (3) Maggie Stiefvater (9) Misfits (1) music (8) Olympics (2) opening ceremony (1) P.J. The mystery at the heart of Seizure was well done, and I was unable to guess what was going to happen until I was actually reading about it.įor anyone who read Enid Blyton's Famous Five series when they were younger, the Viral s series is like that (four teenagers and a dog), but ramped up 10 times and firmly set in the 21st century. Tory Brennan is a great heroine - brave, clever and still trying to deal with all the rubbish that comes with being a teenager (a boy who likes you but you don't like back, mean girls at school, you r dad's new girlfriend) even while coping with the more unusual elements of her life. Reichs is skillful at crafting a world the right side of realistic, in spite of the fact that her characters have special powers some of the time. What follows is close to 500 pages of really tense action. This prompts the Virals to head off on their next adventure - a se arch for tre asure b uried by pirate Anne Bonny in the 1700s, and which could raise enough money for them to save Loggerhead. They've also just discovered that the research facility the ir parents work on, and Lo ggerhead Is land where it is housed, is about to be sold. Tory and her friends - Ben, Shelton and Hi - are still trying to come to terms with the 'powers' they got when they contracted a human form of parvovirus. Seizure is the sequel to Virals, and it's jam packed full of action and terri fying moments. I have, however, read Virals by Reichs, the first in a series featuring the great-niece of Tempe - Tory Brennan.

I 've never read any of Kathy Reichs' books follow ing Dr Tempe Brenna n, and I've not seen Bones, the television series based on those books.
