Thread Name: BS: Robin Jarvis: The Power of Dark
Subject: RE: BS: Robin Jarvis: The Power of Dark
So it's summertime, and Whitby is at its Whitby-est for its visitors.
Meanwhile, Robin Jarvis continues apace.
Today there exist no less than SIX Whitby books by Robin Jarvis,
and a seventh yet to be published
(for all I know, Jarvis is still writing it).
These are the Whitby books:
The Whitby Witches (introduction of two orphaned siblings, in 1990's)
A Warlock in Whitby (the story continues)
The Whitby Child (conclusion: the orphans lose one blood relative, and gain two.)
The Power of Dark (twenty years later, two Whitby 'tweens, born and raised there, meet the last of the Whitby Witches)
The Devil's Paintbox (a diabolical villain snatches one of the 'tweens and escapes into....the historical past)
Time of Blood (in Queen Victoria's day, fully one century BEFORE the first Whitby book with the siblings, the two 'tweens, with the help of that last Whitby witch, defeat the diabolical villain; but now they are stuck in the past....)
The real conclusion is Book Seven,
which is somehow supposed to get the Whitby 'tweens back to their families in the present day.
