Book Description

February 1, 1986
When Anthony Monday stumbles upon the diary of J.K. Borkman, he thinks he's unearthed a worthless piece of junk. But Borkman's mysterious writings turn out to be much more--plans to turn the world into an icy wasteland. By the time ghastly weather sets in and Anthony realizes it's Borkman's fanatical son who is bent on carrying out his father's horrific work, it may be too late to stop him.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Anthony Monday, 14, and Miss Eells, 68, team up again and try to foil the evil plans of Anders Borkman, who plots a way to put the earth into a new ice age and bring forth a pure human race. "This is lusty, fast, witty andintricate entertainment," PW wrote.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you like Harry Potter...., December 3, 1999
then you'll LOVE books by John Bellairs! This man invented mysteries for young readers. Try it, and you won't be able to put it down. The characters are easily to identify with as they seem like ordinary kids, yet they have extraordinary adventures! Bellairs is funny, intelligent and entertaining in his writing. Read it to your kids as a bedtime story, and YOU'LL keep reading it to yourself long after they've nodded off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Chills once again, August 11, 1999
By A Customer
It's a nice one that gives you that creeping feeling, and is interesting. Its thrilling ending is synomous with John Bellairs.
