![]() The Yewbeam aunts (Grandma Bone’s three sisters) are also a little on the evil side and help Grandma when necessary to keep them in check.Ĭharlie gets a surprise visit from an “exterminator” named Onimous and the three flame cats (one yellow, one orange, one red). Gma Bone has kept them on a short leash so she can see if Charlie is endowed with a special gift (the photograph hearing). See, since Charlie’s dad died when he was two, Charlie lives with his mom, his mom’s mom (Maisie), his uncle Paton, and his dad’s mom (Grizelda Bone). Charlie doesn’t have a choice– the family is at the mercy of Grandma Bone et al. While his mom and grandma Maisie are frightened at this discovery, the Bone/Yewbeam side of the family is ecstatic and enroll him into Bloor’s Academy. Synopsis: Charlie discovers that he can hear people in photographs when he receives a photo of a father and daughter, and you can hear the photographer saying this will be the last time the father will see his little girl. Cuz that isn’t fair to ruin a whole series, ya know? Plus, this book is HARD to sum up and sound coherent. ![]() ![]() I’m going to do a summary of the first book (yeah, will probably include spoilers) but I don’t think I’ll continue to sum up the series. It gets a little confusing with the many characters, the various powers, etc. Before I get started, Charlie Bone is the protag in a series of books called The Children of the Red King. ![]()
