Jake and his friends barely survive the retrieval of the first scroll in Atlanta, and it becomes apparent that they have no time to waste in finding all of the scrolls if they are to complete their mission. With that knowledge, they head to their next destination, The Saint Louis cemetery in New Orleans, Louisiana where Jake will have to use his newly acquired abilities to recover the next scroll in broad daylight at yet another tourist attraction.
Meanwhile, Seraphine has decided that the only way to destroy her Nemesis is to do it herself, as she and her minions strike out for the United States and the land of Mardi Gras in a stolen private jet.
Will Jake and his group of friends manage to get there first and claim the scroll, or will a gang of demon possessed, biker outlaws keep them from reaching their destination in time?

"RUNE (Episode IV: Entombed)" by J.H. Glaze is speeding things up in this enchanting paranormal adventure series geared at young adults and young at hearts. Our trio of protagonists are 18 year old Jake, his girlfriend Maire and Pete, a demon trapped in a dog's body. Hunted by evil demons the three of them have an exhausting and action packed journey ahead of them. Jake Rune has recently gone an ominous transformation and has acquired super human powers. Hunting down scrolls is part of their mission...and of course simply surviving, too. Glaze has created very meorable and likeable characters who are great leads to bring and keep the story alive. They are chasing and are being chased in what might become a tour of the Southern States. Jake's arch enemy Seraphine has joined the hunt for out young heroes and adds more colour to the story.
Of all four books this is the fasted and most action packed. After setting up the scene and characters and after getting us used to his originally created world Glaze now invites his readers to a moreadrenalin-fuelled episode that will be continued in Episode V.
Masterfully written, with natural dialogue and great pacing this is an easy and solid read. A hugely enjoyable feast for fans of fun and suspenss-filled paranormal fare.
We return to the complex life that Jake and friends have found themselves demon deep within, in Episode IV of the serial novella, Rune from J.H. Glaze. Episode I introduced us to Jake and friends, Episode II brought us into the realm of why Jake's life is in danger, Episode III brings the group in contact with the minions of Seraphine...Episode IV dives into the darkness of New Orleans as Seraphine draws closer to Jake, and Jake struggles to continue on his quest. Once again the writing is fast-paced, the characters are brilliant and the story is high intensity action. The tale of terror that took Jake from being a simple teen heading into adulthood with very little direction, has gone into overdrive and I cannot wait for Part Two to come together. I think this is one of Glaze's best series, with an immense amount of potential. The characters drive the story, coming to life from the page into the mind. I could totally see this story as a comic book/graphic novel or even better, a movie.
This magnificent masterpiece has left me yet again, entranced in the world of Jacob Rune and his amazing adventures. The characters in this story are virtually amazing and a lot of fun to read about. I love the action, suspense, and humor that is brought forth in this phenomenal story. When this author puts pen to paper and begins to write, he brings a magic all of his own and lures us in and keeps us on the edge of our seats throughout the whole story. We are always left in shock and awe by each story this author releases for us to read and this one is no different. If you are like me, you will been craving more once you read this memorable story. It's a great read for teens and teens at heart to read and enjoy and I highly recommend this to all. I am really excited to read about the next adventure that Jacob and friends go on next.
As I sit and type my review, if in the end, will good, yet again, triumph over evil or will evil win?
Episode IV of the Rune series is a fast paced, masterfully told story that will keep you on the edge of your seat from the first page to the last. Each installment enlightens the reader with Jake's ever-developing abilities. Throw Pete's sarcastic brand of humor into the mix and everything comes together to make the perfect read. Mr. Glaze's talent and creativity never cease to amaze me. If you haven't read any of his work, you are missing out on some tremendous storytelling. Great job, as always! I look forward to reading the next installment.
