The Moon Stealers and The Children of the Light

The Moon Stealers #4

by Tim Flanagan

"If The Hunger Games and Veronica Roth's Divergent Series have left you eager for more, The Moon Stealers is the next big Urban Fantasy series..."
An alien bacteria has landed on the planet, frozen within the core of a meteorite. But it has developed and grown. Now the Moon Stealers are relentlessly hunting humans and removing them from the top of the food chain. In such adversity, the survivors adapt and find ways to live.
Sir Edgar and the children jump through the portal from the Underworld with an unexpected follower. Their task, as explained by Lady Flora, the mother of nature, is to reawaken the magic that flows within each plant and animal so that the Earth can fight back.
Meanwhile, Steven, Georgia, and Tracker head towards the Isle of Wight, intent on rescuing a young girl called Annie, and prevent Coldred from creating a community of slaves.

About the author

At some point in Tim's childhood, he was abducted by aliens and sent on a voyage of knowledge and discovery across the universe. Eventually the aliens realised how pointless this was and, as a failed student, he was returned to Earth and left with a family who brought him up as a human bean. But, the persistent memories of new worlds, dragons and other creatures, continued to knock at his frontal lobe, desperately trying to break out. To avoid making a mess and calm his imagination, Tim began writing as a way to communicate with Earthlings. Fuelled by Chilli and Nachos and a bottle of wine, Tim manages to balance a love of loud rock music and fast cars (preferably red!) with emotional chic flicks, smart leather shoes and a well tailored suit. He has successfully infiltrated the humans and hides behind the façade known as a family. He learns from his children, but is regularly told to stop acting like a child by his wife. Naturally shy and unsociable by nature, he is selective of the human company he keeps, preferring to be around old books, bonsai and art. He cries at 'It’s a wonderful life' but sulks if fed evil vegetables disguised as Parsnips or Peas. He is bored by mundane conversation, excited by architecture and castles and fuelled by Caramel Latte Macchiato's. Occasionally, he likes to catch up with old acquaintances on Tatooine, Westeros, and Middle Earth, and stare at fantasy and concept art as if it is a window to his childhood adventures. He is always trying to learn lessons from the masters; Mr Charles Darwin and Mr Lionel Ritchie, about life and love. Tim's galactic mission is to translate his brain activity into a language that inspires and entertains you, transports you to different worlds and grants you an audience with the characters you have dreamt about, but never dared to remember. All of this in an attempt to redeem himself with his childhood alien abductors and travel the stars once more.

I love this book, the finale, the ending, whatever you want to call it. I loved it. I like how the kids just kept on going, and didn't want to stop until they got to the bright world. The saddest part of this book was the fact that edgar dies, but he had it coming because of that scratch from the Moon stealer, but it took really long to kill him. Also, his sword, Ethera bonded to one of the other kids, Whom i do not remember. But They were able to unleash a powerful shockwave of light, vaporizing all moonstealers.
