Book Hero thinking about your next read

Determined to stop her mother's evil plans, Simone teams up with Sebastian to find a secret island that may be the home of the soul summoner.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

The thrilling conclusion to the Hollow Dolls duology continues Simone's story as she sets out with her friends to stop the body walker Lady Aisling once and for all.

Simone is still reeling from learning the truth about her mother, Maeve. But she knows she has to stop her before she finds what she's looking for and ends up hurting her friends in the process.

When Simone stumbles across an old legend about a handful of folks with rare and powerful talents who fled to a secret island haven, she wonders if the soul summoner Maeve seeks could be there. So she and Sebastian set off to find it, hoping to get there before Maeve does.

But as Simone and her travelling party draw closer to the island, it becomes clearer that Maeve will stop at nothing to get what she wants. And if her evil isn't stopped, it could mean terrible consequences for everyone Simone loves.

With the gripping feel of a new classic, the Hollow Dolls duology will enthrall middle school readers who love fantasy, magic, and danger. Perfect for 5th grade and above.

Praise for Hollow Dolls:

"Connolly... introduces new characters and a gripping plot with a twistβ€”all sure to captivate readers." - Booklist

"An entertaining start to a new series... Simone's attempt to unravel the secrets of her past is relatable." - Publishers Weekly

"This fantasy covers a lot of groundβ€”suspense, friendship, bravery, family, and magic. Plot twists will surprise even readers paying close attention... A recommended purchase." - School Library Journal
