The Starfish Island Gang

The Starfish Island Gang, Mystery of The Beach House is a profoundly inspiring book by Author Brenda Mize Garza, and the first in the series. The Starfish Island Gang, Mystery of The Beach House is both powerful and entertaining, and a great start to a sequel. Using well-crafted characters and clear dialogues between them, the author puts forth wonderful concepts about faith and what true Christianity is all about. The story is told in first person by Andrew. He, Allen, Lee, Paige (the only girl in the gang), and Michael are long intrigued by an old abandoned beach house that is extremely close to the water's edge. Their adventurous spirits led them to explore the old abandoned beach house. Here they begin to uncover some hidden truths, each member of the gang has a spiritual encounter and discovers they all have special gifts as they learn about the unseen world around them. As they face life challenges, they learn to lean on The Word of God for help.
We get to know about the lives of these children, but Andrew's character is drawn a lot more intimately.
Charlie is a lovable character once you really get to know him. Charlie's background story will give the readers true insight into how demons have helped mold his behavior.
Ms. Martha, the librarian helps these children on their quests to find out who they truly are in Christ Jesus.
It is a well-written cogent narrative that presents the themes of responsibility, forgiveness, and friendship perfectly. Further, she has explored the age-old topic of good against evil. Her masterful blend of Christian concepts and literary fiction is well done. Overall, it is a well-grounded Christian fiction book that keeps one engrossed from beginning to end. It serves as a much-needed inspiration to young readers and Christians as well. Seeking to learn the truth about God and to navigate through life in true discernment.
