  <description><![CDATA[They call it the Academy. A secluded, cliff-top mansion overlooking the rugged Pacific coast. A school for children gifted -- or cursed -- with extraordinary minds. Children soon to come under the influence of an intelligence even more brilliant than their own -- and unspeakably evil. For within this mind a dark plan is taking form. A plan so horrifying, no one will believe it. No one but the children. And for them it is already too late. Too late, unless one young student can resist the seductive invitation that will lead... into the <em>Shadows</em>.]]></description>

I don't know, if you're bored and need to something to read pick this one up, but don't go out of your way to read it.]]></body>

    <![CDATA[They call it the Academy. A secluded, cliff-top mansion overlooking the rugged Pacific coast. A school for children gifted -- or cursed -- with extraordinary minds. Children soon to come under the influence of an intelligence even more brilliant than their own -- and unspeakably evil. For within this mind a dark plan is taking form. A plan so horrifying, no one will believe it. No one but the children. And for them it is already too late. Too late, unless one young student can resist the seductive invitation that will lead... into the <em>Shadows</em>.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Like most of John Saul's books, this is a fast read - I managed to do it in under 4 hours. Unfortunately, it seems as though that's about all the time it took to actually write the book as well. With very little character development and a plot that goes from &quot;point A&quot; to &quot;point B&quot;...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/37902435">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really, really enjoyed this book. Even though the book gave the key players away almost immediately  it did a wonderful job of setting up and keeping the tension and suspense throughout the book.  You were always kept wondering what exactly was going on.<br/><br/>]]></body>

    <![CDATA[They call it the Academy. A secluded, cliff-top mansion overlooking the rugged Pacific coast. A school for children gifted -- or cursed -- with extraordinary minds. Children soon to come under the influence of an intelligence even more brilliant than their own -- and unspeakably evil. For within this mind a dark plan is taking form. A plan so horrifying, no one will believe it. No one but the children. And for them it is already too late. Too late, unless one young student can resist the seductive invitation that will lead... into the <em>Shadows</em>.]]>
