Black Bones

by E.E. Richardson

Tony Kim works in a magic shop. Not the sort that sells card tricks. This is real magic. Something's going on. There's a demon skull, an evil cult, a blood moon rising, a werewolf with attitude. Can Tony find out what's happening and stop it?

This was a bit disappointing. The main character is in his late teens, which would make it YA, but it feels more like middle-grade. That could be because it was written for struggling readers. I must say, the layout and writing style are probably very suitable for the target group. Unfortunately, the tension and 'horror' got stuck at middle-grade level too. It was all a bit mellow. It could have been so much more exciting. I'm used to more tension from E.E. Richardson.
The story itself was okay, although a bit short. There were some cool things in it, like spells and magical objects.
But overall, not very satisfying.
2,5 stars
