A review by whimsicallymeghan
The Shadow of Death by Christopher Pike

3.0

The story continues as Alisa, or Sita as she’s known by her closest friends, has to take down the bad guys. Sita’s group of friends has two organizations after them, the Telar, and the IIC. Both deal with otherworldly creatures that need to be destroyed. She must put herself through hell, literally, to save the people that she loves. The plot in this novel kept getting thicker and thicker with new things springing up for the reader to try and keep track of. It gets annoying trying to keep up, but it’s a good novel in the sense that the author is keeping the reader on their toes with every word throughout the novel. Sita’s character definitely grows the most throughout this series. This novel feels like an ending to the series, although there is another novel after it, which is the final novel. Pike does vampires in a good way, they aren’t cheesy, they are badass, which makes a reader want to read the novel. Overall, this novel was full of action that made the reader want to read more to find out what was going to happen.
