Darkley Harries and the Killing Jar: The Summerland Chronicles: Book Two Kindle Edition

by A J McKenzie (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
3.1 out of 5 stars 7

When three children vanished in the woods, people blamed Darkley Harries, the old poacher. The children never returned and Darkley was no-where to be found - he had simply disappeared.

Years later another child vanished; Darkley Harries was blamed once more.

“Stay on the path,” warned Minnie’s father, “don’t stray into the woods and stay away from the copse near the loch - it’s not safe.”

But children never listen, do they…

AJ McKenzie is a Londoner living in N. Somerset in an old Victorian house overlooking the sea.

The Summerland Chronicles record the exploits of the descendants of Steven of Kew, an 11th-century religious leader, and of Erebus, a pagan sorcerer.

The stories set mainly in the 19th and 20th centuries depict the sometimes bizarre, sometimes unnatural tales of a family unwittingly guided towards an unavoidable fate in the 21st century. The more you read, the more engrossed and puzzled you will become. The clues and hints may seem obvious but are they? You may think you know what’s going to happen but until you read the whole series you will never truly know.

Set in the ‘real’ world there is always a hint of something not quite right. Is it reality or is there more here than meets the eye? Could it be that we are too complacent, too blinkered to see what is really going on?

And while the novels follow the Chronicles saga, each book depicts a separate, unrelated suspense-filled story. Running parallel to the Chronicles, occurring within the same time frame, the first three books can be read in any order but Dark Judy and the Rocking Man, and A Kaleidoscope of Butterflies (available Easter 2019) should be left until the end.

I bought this book after reading AJ McKenzie's brilliant book "Agnes Allen and The Gate Keepers Children". Darkley Harris and the Killing Jar is a wonderful read and full of twists and turns that keep you wanting more. I love A J McKenzie's style of writing, she draws you in and makes you think. Simply riveting ! I Highly recommend .

2.0 out of 5 stars Horrific

Not my favourite read. I found the whole concept weird . The victims were lured into an horrific situation with no choice and an inevitable outcome.

Cross with myself for wading my way through it. However if I start a book I like to finish it.
