He was actually a cryptid catcher, known for finding elusive beasts like the bloodsucking chupacabra. His goal: discover the one extraordinary cryptid whose blood grants immortality--before the knowledge falls into the wrong hands. The mission remains unfinished, and now there's only one person who can take the renowned cryptid catcher's place: Clivo. He may not know the first thing about monster hunting, but he's willing to give it a try--because anything beats staying home with his salsa-crazy aunt and her neurotic cats. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eThe Cryptid Catcher\u003c\/i\u003e: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"[Fisher] dishes up an action-oriented romp, \u003cb\u003eputs a resourceful but not superhuman protagonist at the head of a colorful, diverse (of species as well as race) supporting cast\u003c\/b\u003e, and salts the plot with tantalizing hints that the stakes are about to broaden.\" --\u003ci\u003eBooklist, \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003estarred review \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Fisher's debut, the first half of a duology, delivers adventure and laughs. . .\u003cb\u003ereaders will be ready for the sequel when they turn the final page\u003c\/b\u003e.\" --\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews \u003c\/i\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLija Fisher \u003c\/b\u003elives in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. \u003ci\u003eThe Cryptid Catcher \u003c\/i\u003eis her debut novel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 7.6 x 5.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 20, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuiz Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cryptid Catcher\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Middle Grades, 4-8\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.8\u003c\/div\u003e\n                \n                \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10\u003c\/div\u003e\n                ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51761001005344,"sku":"9781250308528","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/d474b733ee3aa69ae681ef72719c9838.webp?v=1780196767","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-cryptid-catcher-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
