About A Door In The Woods

Product Description What begins as a summer-day climb up his favorite tree quickly takes an ugly turn for poor Jimmy Fincher, as he witnesses something that turns his perception of reality upside-down. When the perpetrator of the act notices Jimmy in the tree, the ensuing adventures explode into a torrent of suspense and excitement. The next month of Fincher’s life includes an ancient legend come to life, a conspiracy of madmen decades old, strange portals to other worlds, villains named everything from Raspy to Shadow and behind it all is the old wooden door in the forest by Jimmy'’s home. There, something wondrous awaits. Review This book was so much fun for me (an adult) to read to my children that we have hungrily devoured the next three books in the series! Daschner has a great sense of humor, a wild and wonderful imagination, and a gift for keeping it all clean and appropriate. He knows the end from the beginning when he writes. He does a great job of leaving loose ends, then tying them all together later on. I've been very impressed with his writing. Even my 12-yr-old, "too cool to read a book" son begs for more every night. --Amazon I was surprised to see that this series has been somewhat pushed aside by the popularity of the Maze Runner series (which is also a great series). The Jimmy Fincher Saga was introduced to me by my 11 year old daughter and I was surprised and just how much I liked this series. I'm definitely a believer in James Dashner now and snatch up anything he writes. As to this book (sorry for the lack of focus), I really enjoyed it and have recommended it to several friends. I would not hesitate to recommend it to others. --Amazon I have used this book as a read aloud for 6 years in my classroom. It usually wins hands down as the children's favorite book that I read! I have read it to 4th and 5th graders but I think 3rd would probably enjoy it also. Excellent fantasy book! --Amazon From the Back Cover Jimmy Fincher never expected that a normal day in the woods would drastically change his life. Deep in the forest, he discovers an old wooden door, setting off a chain of events that explode into a torrent of suspense and excitement. One mysterious door is going to change the world... forever.
