The exciting conclusion to Jason Crane's Sleepy Hollow adventure! "General of the Dead" is an epic work capping the first Jason Crane trilogy. The first two novels, "Rise Headless and Ride" & "Bridge of Bones" were only a prelude to this extraordinary work spanning three hundred years of true Tarrytown history, interwoven with the Legends, myths, and superstitions of the Dutch settlers. Impeccably researched, with absolute fidelity to the modern village, its sights, places and byways. A brew of Witches and Headless Horsemen, Ghosts and Necromancers, Psychics, Superheroes, Scooby-Doo and a teen hero in a mess of trouble. A love letter to Halloween itself, to America's first literary master Washington Irving, and to the village he loved so well. A must for any fan of Irving's original, or anyone young or old who still has a pumpkin-carving kid inside them.From the back cover:JASON CRANE floats between life and death.The HEADLESS HORSEMAN has taken the fieldand AGATHE THE WITCH has taken KATE USHER.The war for Sleepy Hollow has begun.Now Jason and Kate must fight their way back.Joey and Zef must defy The Appointed.Or pumpkins will blaze on a midnight ride with the GENERAL OF THE DEAD… (plus d'informations)

That homecoming football game going south was pretty rad. (

Probably one of the best book series that I have read, and not my usual genre either. I almost wouldn't mind seeing this done as a mini-series (Netflix or Hulu Original please). I tend to find that many of the "longer" books tend to fill the pages up with a lot of filler that ends up boring me to tears. That wasn't the case with this one (there were a couple of minor slow parts, between all 3 of these, but nothing that distracted from my enjoyment). I was pretty much hooked and mesmerized all the way through.

I loved this twist to the Legend of Sleepy Hollow story (I loved the show, so that might be why I was drawn to this in the first place), imagining if the characters in that story had been actual, real people, who had their own families and descendants.

Reading a particular review below, I have to wonder if it would have been less biased (*drip* *drip* *drip*) if they were not acquainted with each other (oh yes, I went there).

I love all three books in the Jason Crane series, although it's really one big novel. And with more to come, from what I've read. The Agatha section could have been published as a completely separate book, but then you never know if people will read it, and it's full of important history and other information. Gleaves is great at creating interesting characters, whether they are good or bad, but the bond of friendships he develops in these pages are reason enough to keep reading. (
