Explanation Conducive To Books The Death Catchers
Dear Person-Holding-This,I guess you must've found my letter. Well, when you read it, keep in mind that passing Mrs. Tweedy's English class is hard enough. But when the fate of the world suddenly rests on your shoulders, it's difficult to focus on school. I wish I'd handled things better, but when I saw my first death-specter foretelling my best friend's death, I freaked out.
Of course, I didn't exactly sign up to be a Hand of Fate or to protect King Arthur's Last Descendant. I know it isn't my fault Vivienne le Mort and Morgan le Faye decided to toy with fate all those centuries ago, but I do blame myself for what happened in Crabapple. Anyway, I hope you'll understand why writing my story was the only way I had even a small chance of saving the world and finishing my English assignment.
Sincerely,
Lizzy Mortimer
Death Catcher

This book was a pleasant surprise for me, I thought it was going to be pretty much like all of the other ya fantasy I'd read recently; stilted dialogue, shallow characters, and teenage drama used as a crutch for a story that couldn't stand on it's own. I'll be the first to admit I was wrong. The story is based on Arthurian legend, and I thought it was done very well. It was original, and the characters had different personalities! *applause* (Lizzy's mom was my favorite.) I may have to read itWhile the book does follow your standard protagonist-discovers-special-ability-must-use-to-save-village formula, it was delightfully fun. Clearly an English teacher (or english major) wrote it, for it follows the conceit of being an assignment of English in which the cornerstones of literacy are broken down and used to from each chapter (tension, alliteration etc etc). It was a bit of fun actually, and probably a great instruction manual for beginner writers and teens. My favourite part about
This book was one of my favorites. It was very interesting and I loved how it ended.
Good premise. Horrible execution. Elizabeth "Lizzy" Mortimer is an ordinary girl with an extraordinary talent; she sees "Death Specters," or visions, when her loved ones are about to die. Her first death specter comes to her on Halloween, as the newspaper she's reading goes blank and retypes itself as a future news article, an obituary of her best friend Jodi. With the help of her grandmother, Bizzy--from whom she inherited her powers--Lizzy is able to prevent her best friend's fate. But soon
