Do You like book Nightmare Academy (2003)?
Review by Gretchen HoffmanA fifteen-year-old boy shows up along a highway interstate. He doesn’t know his name, how to dress himself, and has no memory of what’s happened to him. He simply repeats the words, “Nightmare Academy.”This is when teenage detectives Elijah and Elisha come into play. They go undercover as runaways where the boy and his friend were last seen before their disappearance. The twins are quickly headed on the right track, but things change when they too disappear. They investigate the going-ons but are unable to contact anyone from where they are. But once they find out what’s really happening, will they have a chance to escape and save themselves?Peretti is a master storyteller with mystery novels, and this one is no exception. This book is a little darker than some of his other novels, and while it’s good, it is a bit creepy. I read this book when it first came out, and the one scene where Elijah quotes the Ten Commandments has stuck in my mind ever since. This is one of those books that’s intriguing, discusses some deep ideas, and will stick in your mind long after you’ve read it. If you’re a Peretti fan, have read book one in the series, or are into mysteries, this is one for you.

Nightmare Academy by Frank Peretti-I love this book. It is one of my very favorites. Enter a world where there is no truth and no right or wrong. A place where minds are turned upside down. That's what happen to Alvin Rogers. You can ask him as many questions as you want. You won't get anywhere. All he says is "I don't know." and the occasional "NIGHTMARE ACADEMY" Enter the Veritas Project team. They are a crime fighting team that were asked by the President to investigate strange events happening across the U.S.A. I

I have read other Frank Peretti books before, so I knew what enjoyment and excitement I was in for. The mystery and suspense of the book is heart wrenching. The Springfield family is not your average christian family. Nate and Sarah have two children named Elisha and Elijah. The Springfield family could be considered as the gang from Scooby-Do. The investigation of a recently found boy causes great concern die to the fact that he has no recollection of anything but the name Nightmare Academy. Nothing he says makes any sense. He acts like he has been brain washed and he is in a strange world. through some investigation the Springfields find themselves separated. the children are in a "camp" and "school". Nate and Sarah have no idea what has happened to their children and the children have no idea where they are. Because of the schools policy on right and wrong, and truth and false, there is much argument by the children of the school. Cutting out a little bit of detail from the large amount of interesting characters that form the story, the school ends up in revolt against the teachers. Little do they know that they are walking into a trap...
