THE SINISTER SORCERER BY TOM HOFFMAN

They’rrrrrrrrre back!

The Comet Kids, Max and Grace Underwood, two siblings with special powers derived from the passage of colored comets at the time of their births (blue and green,) saviors of multiple worlds, but often just as annoying to each other as Lucy and Charlie Brown, return in Tom Hoffman’s third installment of his series, The Comet Kid Chronicles – The Sinister Sorcerer, accompanied by a previously introduced member of this exclusive club, Sophie Saltzman, born under a yellow comet, able to create wormholes for instant translocation, now joined by another previously introduced but misnomered friend, Clara Voyant, Super Psychic Extraordinaire, more accurately identified here as Naomi Simone, she of the purple comet, able to physically manifest ghostly helpers and useful artifacts at will. Quite a run-on introduction, don’t you think? Yes, but I am simply suggesting the unrelenting momentum with which Tom Hoffman infuses his adventurous tales.

In this episode of your favorite superstars (get it?) the gang of four, used to finding their way to hyper-distant, hyper-dimensional, hyper-alien planets, tasked by some transcendent universal guardians to “save their worlds,” this time find themselves transporting back to Ancient Rome in search of a scepter to reunite (spoil alert) two of those universal guardians. Quite a plotline, don’t you think? Yes, but that is really just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. Or skimming the surface of one incredible imagination. Where Tom Hoffman continues his always wise and always humorous depictions of four very typical, if quite abnormal (in a good way,) young and delightful heroes.
