Jimmy Chartron and the Lost Keystone

Written by J.T. Michaels

Ages 13-18 | 336 Pages

Publisher: J.T. Michaels | ISBN-13: 9781778035203

Publisher’s Synopsis: Author J.T. Michaels brings a fantasy tale of an ancient war, a modern-day murder mystery, mystical creatures, and memorable characters in his masterfully written young adult novel, Jimmy Chartron and the Lost Keystone.

The Great War ended a century ago. Peace reigns across the eight countries. Epic tales of heroic men and women of those times are recounted in song and story. Yet, history seems to have forgotten a young battlefield healer, Tessa Marlise…

Sixteen-year-old Jimmy Chartron has just enrolled at the Navale Academy of Eagleon, his mind set on becoming an electrician. A chance magical encounter binds him to the trapped soul of Tessa Marlise. As Jimmy struggles to deal with this shocking development, murder and mystery unravel in the academy. Caught in the middle of everything, Jimmy realizes that a larger evil is afoot and that only two things can stop it: himself and the ghost in his head…

About the Author

Author J.T. Michaels has always loved storytelling, no matter the medium. Being immersed in a different world, whether it’s through books or video games, has also been an obsession for him. Years after writing for his school magazine, he discovered he wanted to create his own worlds for readers, and his journey to fantasy writing began with Jimmy Chartron and the Lost Keystone, the first volume in his epic fantasy series.

J.T. gets inspiration for his books from everything around him, incorporating his friends as character ideas to make his stories as relatable and realistic as possible. He hopes his young readers come away from his stories having escaped from the real world for a bit and with a spark of magic that lasts long after the book is closed.

When he isn’t writing enchanting fantasy novels for teens, J.T. enjoys running and spending time outside in the sunshine and hunkering down in a bookstore or library on rainy days. He lives in British Columbia, Canada, where he likes to indulge in a great cup of coffee. Jimmy Chartron and the Lost Keystone is his debut novel, the first in a planned fantasy trilogy.

MY THOUGHTS


Jimmy Chartron and the Lost Keystone is a middle grade book that is written by J.T. Michaels. The book is recommended for ages 9 and up. I chose to read this book with my 11 and 9 year old son. My 9 year old is not the hugest fan of reading, but he was excited to sit down every night. 

They loved this book because it is full of adventure. I hope to read the next book in the series. Jimmy is 16 and has worked really hard to get into Navale Academy of Eagleon. He has big dreams of becoming an electrician. Once he arrives he finds a secret in a statue from a Great War hero, Tessa Marlise. Imagine Tessa's surprise when she wakes up in the body of  16 year old Jimmy. The last thing that Tessa had remembered was protecting the Keystone. They work together, Tessa takes the lead and go on a fun adventure. 

The book was well written and would appeal to middle grade readers. The kids and I enjoyed it. Thank you to the author, publisher and Children's book review for allowing me to read a copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.
