Stine and Jovial Bob Stine, is an American novelist and writer, well known for targeting younger audiences. Overall, “The Betrayal” is still a fun book to read and I think those reading it for the first time will still find it intriguing and suspenseful.Robert Lawrence Stine known as R. It would have been fun to also get a backstory on Benjamin and how the trials got started. I would have liked to see more details on how William practiced his magic to get revenge on the Fiers. However, I guess that was true for that time so really can’t complain about that.
There are also a few sexist remarks which are uncomfortable to read, with dialogues like ‘a woman’s place is in the kitchen’. Firstly, there are a lot of characters involved, and the pacing is also very fast, so it takes time to a hang of who’s who. There were a few minor problems with this book though. More than Susannah, I felt sorry for Mary and hoped that she got somewhat of a happy ending. There are still some eerier elements like when the skeleton falls on Ezra, and when Edward sees Susannah’s ghost in the forest. The story spans across generations and it was interesting to read how the feud between the Fiers and the Goodes started. Instead, the story of revenge, malice and betrayal made this book an enjoyable read. I didn’t care for the character’s love stories because it just went by way too quickly. The overall pacing is fast and consistent and never gets boring at any time. The main highlight of “The Betrayal” is in its plot.
While this book did not have the same effect on me this time, I still enjoyed reading it. I decided to re-read them along with the continuing “Sagas” series to see if they still had that effect on me now. I remember reading the Fear Street Saga trilogy when I was a teenager and getting scared from its creepiness. Nora knows about the young girl who burned at the stake–and the bloody feud between two families that caused the unspeakable horror that has lasted 300 years! Why do so many horrifying things happen on Fear Street? Nora knows.
