Review: "Shadow House: The Gathering," by Dan Poblocki

When orphan Poppy gets a personal letter inviting her to come stay at Larkspur house with her long lost Aunt Delphinia, she's ecstatic. It's been so long since she had a family and can't wait to get out of the orphanage. She isn't the only one invited to Larkspur though. Marcus, a musical prodigy, gets an invitation to a prestigious music school. Azumi wants to attend a private boarding school far away from her home in California to try to push the memories of her lost sister away. Dash and Dylan are twin TV stars who have just been written out of their show and are invited to star in a haunted house film. All arrive at Larkspur ready for their dreams to come true. All only find nightmares! What is going on at Larkspur house? Why are the kids seeing things and being attacked by other kids wearing animal masks? Don't expect all the answers in this novel because it is the first installment of a series! I enjoyed this audiobook and thought the narrator captured the terror in the book well.

Mrs. Denney's Rating: ***1/2
