I have just finished F.Paul Wilson’s Jack: Secret Circles. This is the author’s second book in a series for teens. It is a prequel to his adult series featuring Repairman Jack, “the man who can fix any problem or mystery.” It was a satisfying read. Jack and his friends Weezy and Eddie find themselves coming across a strange find in the Pine Barrens and when Jack’s five-year-old neighbor goes missing it sets the stage for a creepy-supernatural who-done-it adventure. I wish I had read the first book in the teen series entitled Jack: Secret Histories. I would have been able to have more of a connection to the pyramid shaped stone cage and the smaller pyramid that had been stolen from them (in Jack: Secret Histories). Be that as it may, Wilson left me wondering about the “secret history of the world” a sure hook to get me to read the next book in this series. Would I recommend it…yes! It has adventure, mystery and touch of fantasy.
