G. P. Taylor, New York Times Best Selling author, is causing quite a stir and being heralded as "Hotter than Potter" and "The New C.S. Lewis."
The Secret of Indigo Moon will most likely not disappoint those who devoured the first book and are fans of this series.
With dark mysterious looking pages, an attention getting storyline, manga comic illustrations and easy to read print – I’m guessing that this second installment in The D More...

The Secret of Indigo Moon
ISBN: 978-1-4143-1948-3
The Secret of Indigo Moon is a very interesting book. Honestly, thought it's a kids' book, I loved it. I read it in one sitting.
When I read “Indigo Moon” I supposed that it was referring to a certain phase of the moon as seen in a certain place. Indigo Moon is a person.
What was his secret?
Well, that would spoil the story.
Let's just say that he made tunnels that connected houses and emptied the sam More...

This is the second installment in the Dopple Ganger Chronicles. Erik, Sadie and Saskia are found exploring tunnels and getting into mischief yet again, much to Headmistress Rimmer's chagrin. They seem to just get out of trouble before they are in it again. The sleuthing trio however, are still trying to save the day. It's not their fault that trouble just happens to follow them around.

I had never read any books by this author and didn't know what to expect. It is such a beautiful book, the colors they used for the front and the sides I love.
The story is standard fare for youth fiction. A young man and his twin friends live at a school for abandoned children and stumble upon a theft and decide to investigate. Enter their enemy, a soft-hearted henchman, and a cast of interesting if unoriginal characters and you have the ingredients for a story that any young reader More...

Secret of Indigo Moon (The Dopple Ganger Chronicles #2) is the second installment to The Dopple Ganger Chronicles three part series. It's a mystery novel about Erik Morissey Ganger and the Dopple twin sisters. Love, love, love this series!

This is the second installment in the Dopple Ganger Chronicles, a series of graphic novels for young teens. Similar to The Invention of Hugo Cabret, the Dopple Ganger Chronicles novels consist of pages of text interspersed with both illustrations and "comic book style" pages. The story is entertaining, free of objectionable elements, and mildly suspenseful. I can understand why this book appeals to young people, especially reluctant readers: each page offers something different, and t

I read this book to my kids, ages twelve and six, and they both really enjoyed it. My six year old has a pretty short attention span, but he was interested enough in the story to sit still and listen as we read up to 100 pages in one sitting. On it's own, at least for me, the story was not that interesting. Of course, it's a children's book, so that's not necessarily surprising. My kids did love it, after all.
But I think what they really loved about this book, and what makes it s More...

I must say right up front I am not a big fan of graphic novels. Because I’m always trying to find ways to get my students to read; and because my students love graphic novels, I decided to give this book a try. I am glad I did. For me so many graphic novels are more pictures than words. This series has a great balance of both. This is the second book in the Dopple Ganger Chronicle. Erik Morissey Ganger and twins Sadie and Saskia Dopple find themselves once more in the thick of things. The

The second installment of The Dopple Ganger series, which continues the adventures of the Dopple twins Saskia and Sadie and their friend Erik Morissey Ganger.
This trio seem to always have trouble find them, and in this book it is mysterious thefts that lead them into another scary life threatening adventure. It's got mystery, detective work and a lot of clever schemes.

I had previously started to read Shadowmancer by G.P. Taylor but hadn't gotten in too far before I set it aside so I wasn't expecting much out of his new series. The quote on the back cover of the book calling G.P. Taylor, "The new C.S. Lewis" didn't help either. Yet, sometimes out of nowhere there comes a revelation. When I opened The Secret of Indigo Moon, book two in The Dopple Ganger Chronicles I had one of those moments.

I admit I’m not a big fan of graphic novels…usually. But it didn’t take long for me to get drawn into the world of Erik Morissey Ganger and the Dopple twins, Sadie and Saskia. The Dopple Ganger Chronicles, Book II: The Secret of Indigo Moon is packed with action right from the start. The mystery involving a secret tunnel, a reporter, and an old enemy is well-written and even managed to surprise me a little—something that doesn’t happen often with children’s mysteries.

In the sequel to The First Escape, I felt that G.P. Taylor put together a wonderful story that was a mixture of a Hardy Boy-esque mystery and Eleanor Updale's Montmorency adventures. Just like in the first book, the story starts with Erik and the twins at the orphanage; however, this book picks up pace much more quickly than the first one with the book starting with Erik noticing burglars in a secret passage. Thus starts another adventure and mystery with the Dopples & Ganger.

This is an absolutly wonderful book. It is geared towards youth or young adult but : I really enjoyed reading it. I loved the look of the book from the cover to the pages within with it's comics and special writing. It grabbed me from the beginning. Very fast paste; never boring. The characters were interesting and fun. Overall I would highly reccomend this book.

The story was very exciting and I thought that the Comic art was improved from the first book. Spiritual themes are a lot clearer than in Taylor's Shadowmancer books. The twist at the end was unexpected but also one those "How did i not see that coming?" moments. I definatly can't wait for the next one.

The second book is better than the first - definitely in terms of artwork!
I would recommend this to any reluctant reader. The shifting from written pages, graphic novel sections and lack for a better word... sound effect sections; keeps the pace moving.
