Candle Man (3rd summer entry)

Title: Candle Man
Author:Glenn Dakin
Pages:1-300
Prompt: Did you enjoy reading what you read?

I did but then I also didn't enjoy reading this book. This book is about a kid named Theo. Theo is a long decedent of the Victorian Candle Man. The  Candle Man got his name from how when he would be next to a murderer he would glow but the scary part of the Candle Man was that he would be able to turn anybody to wax. Well not real wax but they would melt like one. Theo didn't even know that he was the Candle Man he just knew, well what they told him was he had a serious condition that made him where gloves. The real reason Doctor Saint (the evil guy) made him where gloves was because he was a murder. Once Theo receives a present from the Society of Unrelenting Vigilance his destiny starts.

The reason I liked this book was because of its story line. The story line was amazing it began with a present. The present from the Society of Unrelenting Vigilance when he gets it he is told to meet someone in the grave yard right by his house. There he meets his fellow mates that will help him save the world. From the dodo and Dr. saint.

The bad part of this book was because it dragged. Near the end the book felt like it should have ended it was all talk and no action. I felt like dropping the book but i stuck through it and the finally was worth the wait. I wont spoil the ending but lets just say it just wont die. I hope you read this book it was a good book just when it gets boring don't drop it always keep a book till the end.
