An Ending that couldn't match the build-up - By: Tushar Kelkar, 29 Jun 2006
"For some time now cloud-masses had obscured the moon. He could see nothing, but he felt the whistlers' presence. There signals came more often, an always closer. Closer. Very close."


If ever was there a book that would take that Nintendo DS or PSP out of your twiddling hands it would be this one; spine-chilling, horrror creaping story right to the end.
The Shadow cage is a story that takes in a sleepy in a sleepy litle village that was doing perfectly fine until an eery secret was revealed.

Ned Challlis is a farmer who was the sort of person who would find a bottle every day. However he was inquisitive enough to bother picking up the bottle & examine it. Somehow, it turned out to be a strange, ancient & dusty bottle.
As the story goes on the bottle unfolds its path, in a spell of supernatural events,entrancing you into a frightening truth.

A good book overalll, just wish that Philippa Pearce had kept that flow to the end.(8+ ages)reviewed by Tushar Kelkar
