AudioFile Magazine
In the third of the Last Apprentice series, Tom is apprenticed to the Spook, who is charged with hunting down witches and ghosts. Tom uncovers a witch's plot to plunge the land into eternal darkness. Since Tom is telling his tale, Welch reflects the apprentice's fears when facing monsters, his chagrin at his own foolish mistakes, and his triumph at overcoming evil. Welch is equally adept at conveying the wise Spook and hissing witches, often in the same breath. It seems strange that Welch gives Tom an American accent when all the other characters sound distinctly British, but the mélange adds to the otherworldly setting. This audio is a good choice to listen to on a dark and stormy night. M.M.O. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine

Gr 5-8-"I've seen some scary things, but living in a house with witch graves, bound boggarts, and live witches in the cellar didn't make me rest easy." With a move across the county to the damp, dark winter house in Anglezarke, 13-year-old Tom Ward returns for his third adventure, completing his first year as the Spook's apprentice. In this installment, Mr. Gregory (the Spook) and Tom, with the help of Alice, an untrustworthy young witch, try to gain power by raising the ancient god of winter, Golgoth. Along the way, they face a stone-chucker boggart, two lamia witches, and a failed former apprentice dabbling in necromancy. Readers new to the series will get filled in on some of the past adventures, making this volume stand alone, but the growth of the characters of the Spook and Tom's mam will be more appreciated by fans. The straightforward, simple language, reflecting the way that the Spook is teaching Tom to deal with fear and the Dark, along with wide margins and illustrations at the head of each chapter, makes this an excellent choice for reluctant readers. It's head and shoulders above formulaic horror series, and fans of Darren Shan's "Cirque du Freak" (Little, Brown) or kids looking for "scary stories" will not be disappointed."Kelly Vikstrom, Enoch Pratt Free Library, Baltimore, MD"
