Review of 'The Curse of the Blue Figurine' on 'Goodreads'

What ages would I recommend it too? – Six and up.

Length? – Most of a day’s read.

Characters? – Memorable, several characters.

Setting? – Real world, 1951.

Written approximately? – 1983.

Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? – Ready to read more.

Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? No.

Short storyline: Johnny Dixon is in a new place and fighting new battles. When he discovers help from an unseen force, he trusts them, even though they tell him to keep a secret.

Notes for the reader: In many ways, it feels oulineish, like you waiting for something to happen. Can't explain why it doesn't feel complete or believable.
