Summary: Love it!
Review: This was the second book of Amelia's that I read, and my second favorite. I like how Risika is portrayed and how she fights mentally with her morals and beliefs. I thought it was a very good book for a person of her age. Plus, it isn't a "happy ending" book. Things don't go back to normal, or everyone lives happily ever after. I like that in a book. A definate recommendation.

Summary: Impressive Writing Skills
Review: Written at the tender age of 13, this book shows that Amelia Atwater Rhodes is sure to stay around for a long, long time. Her descriptions of characters and scenes show that she is determined to be a spectacular author, and it shows in her first book "In The Forests Of The Night."Rachel is a young girl living in the 1600's, when she is confronted by Ather and Aubrey. A witch and a vampire. Aubrey casts Rachel under his spell, and now she is known as Risika. A vampire as well. The book follows Risika's life as she battles Aubrey for taking the lives of her brother Alexander, and her beloved tiger Tora, and as she tries to fight her hunger for blood. This is an excellent book, and I recommend it to anyone who is fascinated with vampires, witches, or paranormal phenomena.
