More About the Author

I've always had an interest in the paranormal, despite a rather normal childhood in Brooklyn, NY.

I first 'met' Jason Specter a few years ago when I began to read the stories on his website, scarystatesof america.com. I have to admit I was hooked right away.

I challenged Jason to pick his favorites. I told him I'd like him to choose one story from each state. I then used my contacts in the publishing world to help get his stories into print. The result is the book: THE SCARY STATES OF AMERICA.

I hope you enjoy your journey through a world beyond that which we take for granted'the world of undead spirits, unearthly creatures, and unexplained lights in the sky. A world filled with out-of-body experiences and past lives recalled, or, as Jason likes to call this place, The Scary States of America.

1.0 out of 5 stars These Clue Club kids are not positive role models., December 28, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: The Case of the Stolen Jewel (Clue Jr. #2) (Paperback)

(We bought books #1 and #2 but returned them both after reading book #1) O.K., I was prepared for the continuous advertisement for the Clue Jr. board game, but I was apalled by the behavior of the kids in this "club". The mysteries they solve are mostly catching each other lying, cheating, and framing the other members of the club! I really don't want my daughter to perceive that I condone or accept that kind of behavior. I sure don't want her to think that membership in a club is worth putting up with lying, cheating club members. I was hoping for an updated Nancy Drew kind of story, with "good guys" who really are good. On the other hand, these books may help improve the quality of your child's fabrications...
