Crooked Castle, Casey Grimes #2.5 (Paperback)

Book 2.5 in the Casey Grimes series—where Brook fights her way across a deadly island to reach a mysterious castle.

The dragon was dangerous. The island is worse.

Brook doesn't believe in second chances. She believes in making it through—with as much style as she can manage.

When a dragon drops her on a jagged island crawling with hostile creatures, Brook knows two things: she's far from her California group home, and the only way off is through the massive castle towering over everything.

The island has traps. The creatures have teeth. Not everyone stranded here wants to help. And the castle? It's watching.

Brook teams up with Fox—a quick-thinking accomplice with his own reasons for being here. Together they hunt for answers: Why were they brought here? What waits inside the castle? And who's controlling the island's deadly tests?

Because this isn't random. Someone wanted her here.

Some doors aren't meant to be opened.
Brook plans to kick one down—and face whatever's on the other side.

A favorite for family read-alouds and classrooms—especially for reluctant readers who usually think they don't like reading. For kids ages 8-14. Over 250,000 copies sold worldwide.
