The House of Power (2007)
"he House of Power" by Patrick CarmanPersonal Response: "The House of Power" was a book of high interest and adventure. I liked the book as far as storyline and length go but feel as if it could have been much better if the author didn't include himself or a character narrating the whole book. Th...
The Dark Planet (2009)
I skipped right to the last book in this series for some unknown reason. Life on Atherton has settled down to a peaceful pastoral routine. Edgar, the boy created by the genius (sometimes crazy evil genius) Dr. Max Harding, wants to explore the center of Atherton. Edgar finds a message from the...

Ríos de fuego (2009)
Rivers of Fire is the second installment of the Atherton Trilogy, and a truly gripping continuation of the events witnessed in the first book. Patrick Carman is an excellent storyteller, and his prowess has never fallen short—least of all now. If you are new to the series, or new to any of Carman...
Rivers of Fire (2008)
Rivers of Fire was okay. Still, a great story and characters. I also like that they put in monsters like the Crats, the Cave eels, the Nubians, and the Fire bugs. The things that made me give this book three stars is that most things that were spoken ended with said. Some were asked, shouted, yel...
