On this island they are trained to be soldiers in an army. The Catchers captured Eden and Will and bring them to their island. Only success is short lived because someone else has plans for Eden and she is captured by the Catchers. They hatch a plan to escape and are successful. For three long years Eden has longed to see the outside world so her and Will decide they are going to escape. She is like a prisoner locked into a room with no one around except Will who is locked away in another room in the tower.

In Garden of Eden you are whisked away to a world few know about and the descriptions are so vivid I felt like I was in that Tower with Eden and Will.Įden has lived locked in a tower for three years. I want to thank Kate Cowan for allowing me to read her book. Garden of Eden is one of those books that pulls on your heart. With three unlikely new friends, Eden begins to realize that the headmistress is hiding much more than the stolen children - and what they learn in the laboratories below the school could cost Eden her life. Enrolled in the island school, Jordan Hall, Eden quickly learns that the island is not what it seems.Īnd, in the woods surrounding the school, she discovers a wild, beautiful magic inside of herself - one she has no idea how to control. When Eden wakes, she finds herself on an island, surrounded by hundreds of stolen children. It was as simple as one walk down a beautiful, foggy beach, but it ended with Eden and Will face to face with Catchers - and this time, there is no escape. Now, Eden White is fifteen, and sick of being a prisoner of parents who all but abandoned her. Four years since the day the Catchers found her family.Īnd four years since the day her mother locked her and Will, a boy she hardly knew, in an attic, 'for their own protection'.
