Synopsis: Where will you be when all hail breaks
loose?
When a mysterious new player wields a deadly storm to force
the men in black into lockdown, teens Eric and Bridget are suddenly separated.
With Bridget on the inside and Eric on the outside, the two race to beat the
clock and open the doors before the suits make the ultimate sacrifice to
prevent the base from falling into the wrong hands.
Get ready for a quirky thrill ride full of spunky book
blogger rants, sneaky twists, liberally-used nicknames, smoldering smirks from
Mothman, and even a hippy vampire. Hold on kiddos, it's Mothman verses the
Weather Machine!
The Mothman Mysteries are set in the same universe with the
same characters, but the books are stand-alone mysteries and can be heard in
any order. Considered a clean teen series, suitable for pre-teens. A humorous
young adult paranormal mystery for fans of Doctor Who and The Dresden Files.
My thoughts:
Wrong Side of the Storm is the second book in the Mothman Mysteries series. This time around, Someone has unleashed a weird storm that may end up causing the Men in Black to lose their headquarters. Eric and Bridget must figure out who is behind the attack and stop it before it's too late.
I thought this was a solid follow-up to Wrong Side of the Grave. This time around, we get into Bridget's head a bit more. I liked that part of the story. We also get to see a bit more of the Men in Black operations. Duey is also back and he is definitely a favorite character of mine. I loved his humor. The mystery was solid. My only complaint was the length. This one felt shorter than the first book. I wish it had been a bit longer. The audio production was as good as the first book, so I highly recommend that format.
I hope the author will continue with this series. I will be recommending it to any YA Sci-fi fan that I know.
