He has no powers but Gideon is spending all his time with him and Dax can't help but feel a little jeolous. But when Gideons long lost sister Cathrine shows up aswell it's all getting a bit to much.
Suddenly everyone else is drowsy all the time and Dax is getting worried. No one will believe him and he thinks the goverment is testing them.
But the truth is all the more sinister is happening and to uncover the truth Dax will have to use all his natural instinct ot keep them alive.
Filled with suspision and panic Dax must take to the wing and find the truth or everyone will die.
Something is incoming, and the fate of the cola's rest in Dax Jones's paws.
A huge improvement on the first. Not too complicated but enough to keep you interested. Easy to read and so far this series is looking good. I would definately recommend for young teeneagers especially but a defineately good read for anyone.
