After fifteen-year-old Simon Porte’s family is killed in an automobile crash, his father’s brother, whom he’s never met, brings Simon to live with him and his wife in upstate New York. Simon doesn’t trust Uncle Raymond, and for good reason. Raymond is dying and using his diabolical powers to take over Simon’s body. Simon must develop his own supernatural defenses to survive. With his dotty great-aunt, his young sister, and a pair of odd twins, he wages war against the evil Raymond and his cronies.
REVIEW:
The Devil's Pawn is a YA horror that I liked reading. It was easy to get into with the characters and plot. This book takes place in Upstate NY, where I grew up, so this was such a fun read! Simon is the main character and is possessed by his uncle. There are supernatural parts of this book that I enjoyed and think readers will also like.
