5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun Read July 12 2003
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
This is an enjoyable book, sure to please readers of all age levels. It's a mixture of mystery and fantasy (heavier on the fantasy) with enough suspense and interest in the characters to keep you turning the pages until you reach the end. Segriff won the Hal Clement Award for Best YA Book for Alien Dreams in 1998. Although Wizardspawn was written for an older audience, it carries the same strong level of writing as Alien Dreams. It's on my recommended reading list.

4.0 out of 5 stars Twilight Zone like mystery spins into a fantasy July 8 2003
By Harriet Klausner TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Hardcover
Non fiction Writer Jeffrey Conner considered the call from his health insurance company one of those weird snafus, but he insists he added his wife to his policy. The bank has no record of his marriage either and finally the hospital insists he picked up his wife and newborn earlier this morning. Adding to his fear factor besides the obvious abductions is that there seems no record of his marriage.

Desperate Jeffrey visits a renowned hypnotist and then private investigators. Sleuth Carl Jeffries finds information a Cordelia Adams who apparently and abruptly left her previous life behind and joined Jeffrey, but no one remembers the event occurring. Soon Jeffrey will learn what happened to his life, but which path to take and who to believe will leave him feeling like a WIZARDSPAWN.

This tale starts off as a Twilight Zone like mystery before spinning into a fantasy entry. As Jeffrey struggles with what has happened to him and what he alone seems to know, fans join him in his bewilderment. When the story line turns full gear into the fantasy genre, the book remains strong, but fans will feel a bit disappointed with the "explanation". Still Larry Segriff provides a fine time for his audience.
