Arctic Hero by Catherine Johnson


Finished this book in on sitting. It is the true story of Matthew Henson an explorer, survivor and arctic hero. It starts with his tragic life in America and ends with him being a national hero 45 years after his death. Read this truly amazing story and be inspired.


A good sized font with a few graphic illustrations make it an easy read. 7/10

Scared to Death - The End


Well I've finally finished this great book. Not what I expected, better. The story takes a mysterious journey through London in the time of Jack the Ripper (so you think). Redman truly is evil with a dark seed leading him on.(you'll understand when you read the book). The last few chapters had me engrossed in the excellent build up to a fantastic end, or is it? Watch this space for the next book Hell's Nightmare II.
The author has clearly researched the serial killer Jack. Locations and dates are factual. Well written 8/10

Scared to Death part II

The story has become dark and sinister, people are not what I thought they were. Redman, I think has a real grievance with the other character in the book. (Who I think is darker than I first thought). Nearly at the end and some questions are finally being answered. Watch this space..........
