The Supernaturalist
By
Eoin Colfer
The
Supernaturalist is a book about an orphan boy named Cosmo Hill, who has no hope
of ever being adopted or fitting in. He
escapes the orphanage and meets a group in which he finally fits in, and he goes
on adventures with them. The book is
written by Eoin Colfer, who is also the author of the famous series, Artemis
Fowl. This science-fiction novel makes
you wonder what will happen to the characters every page you turn!
Cosmo Hill is a
14 year old orphan boy who lived in an orphanage called Clarissa Frayne. He was found as a baby on Cosmonaut Hill,
which is where he got his name. The
Supernaturalists, a group of people, include Stefan Bashkir, Mona Vasquez, and
Ditto Bonn.
This book takes
place in the futuristic world of Satellite City, where almost everything is
automated. Most of the city is run by
the Myishi Corp.’s satellite power source. However, in the time of the book, the
satellite is losing links to the surface of the earth. This causes mild, to catastrophic disasters.
One day, Cosmo
got to go on a bus with his room-mates.
The bus crashed and Cosmo thought that this would be his chance to
escape Clarissa Frayne forever. So, that’s
just what he did. After running through
the building (that the bus crashed into) up to the roof, he jumped to the
rooftop of the closest building. He was
hurt, and he saw a blue transparent creature on his wound. His pain instantly went away. That’s when he saw the Supernaturalists
blasting the creature of his wound.
In the end
though, Cosmo finds himself happy. He is
a Supernaturalist. He has friends, Mona
and Ditto by his side. The job was
done. The Supernaturalists had been
hunting the blue creatures, that happened to be on every other person that was
hurt - forever it seemed. But the
creatures were finally learned about, and were found to be harmless.
I absolutely love
this book. It’s filled with adventure,
and absolutely makes you want to read on, and on! I think my favorite part is when The
Supernaturalists (including Cosmo) go to space to collect a special chip. The one and only space suit doesn’t fit
Stefan, Ditto, or even Mona, so Cosmo has to go out in the suit to get the
chip. If you would like to read
something futuristic, and a book that keeps you wondering what will happen
next, then this is the book for you!
Thanks for reading!!! Have a good day!
