Synopsis

Fourteen-year-old Cosmo Hill longs to escape from the Clarissa Frayne Institute for Parentally Challenged Boys. When a rare chance to get away comes, he grabs it, but the attempt goes fatally wrong. He can feel his life force ebbing away, sucked out of him by a strange blue Parasite ... until a wisecracking gang of kids burst in, blast the creature and save him. They are the Supernaturalists, dedicated to ridding the world of these life-sucking blue parasites. When they realise that Cosmo has the ability to see these blue creatures too, they enlist him as one of them. Their mission leads Cosmo into a world of high-level corruption, James Bond type technology, thrilling adventure and finally back to a place that Cosmo ever thought he'd have to return ... the dreaded Clarissa Frayne.

I absolutely loved the book The Supernaturalist. I advise to everyone who visits this website to read the book and write a review about it saying that Eoin Colfer must write a sequal. I think that he may have accidently left a big hole in the end of the book. What do the supernaturalists do in the future? There has to be an explanation. What happened to "Fence" and the other orphans that escaped from Clarissa Frayne? There are so many questions that still need to be answered. Another book, the sequal may cover mosy of them. I also suggest that he makes a movie out of the EXACT script from the book, so that the story will be even more popular throughout the world. And I also find it quite hard to picture Stefan, Ditto, Mona, and Cosmo. I think that if Eoin has enough requests, he might make a sequal and may even go as far as to make an actual movie!

Eoin Colfer, I really loved your book, but I think that it needs a little something more. Since Ray Shine indicates that he wants to go to the South Pole, maybe you should write another book that continues the story. I'm sure that this would make the book with the sequal one of your best-sellers.

TURN THIS BOOK INTO A MOVIE! IT'S INSANE. The action is out of this world and it would keep people watching.

I liked this book because all the characters and good profiles, and you really got to know them. They were also in depth, with only a little touch of romance on the side.
