A Kid's Review

This review is from: Devil's Race (Trophy Chapter Book: Chiller) (Paperback)

Devil's Race is a great horrer/mystery book by Avi. It's about a 16 year-old boy named John Proud. One day he went to his uncle, Dave's house.
It is a very good book. the first part is boring but it gets interesting.
