Alfie Bloom and the secrets of
hexbridge castle
By Gabrielle Kent
Book review – by Toby Benison
Alfie Bloom is the main character in
this story, he is eleven years old. He
thought he had a very ordinary life, except for his inventing father, until a
letter came for a talk with his lawyer, a mysterious shape shifter, about his
inheritance of Hexbridge castle. Which had
not been opened for hundreds of years. A
short time later he shifted into his castle, which turns out to be magical, and
his life dramatically changed. While exploring
his castle, up in the south tower, Alfie and his cousin’s find a flying,
talking bearskin rug, named Artan. Alife
has a connection with Orin Hopcraft from the day of his birth, which was 600
years ago. Orin Hopcraft is a powerful
Druid who talks to Alfie through letters.
Alfie has also inherited an ancient form of magic from Orin. He meets a mysterious flying creature that
seems to be stealing the villager’s animals … read this exciting book to find
out what happens next.
This is a fantasy book for medium
readers. I would give it 7/10. I liked finding out about the flying creature
the best.
