I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for my honest review.

Sleepy Hollow: Children of the Revolution is based on the television series Sleepy Hollow. Abbie, Jennifer, Captain Irving and Ichabod Crane are battling evil once again. Crane has a vision, and in this vision Katrina urges him to find his Congressional Cross. Unfortunately, he died before receiving it, so the hunt begins. But not before the other crosses are stolen and they uncover a sinister plot; Serilda’s coven is once again trying to resurrect their mistress and they need the crosses to do so. Now it’s a race against time to thwart the coven and prevent the resurrection. Will Crane locate his missing cross? Will they be able to stop Serilda once again?

This is my favorite television show, so when I was given the opportunity to review this book, I jumped at the chance. His is the first time I’ve ever read a book based upon a series, it’s usually the other way around so I read with an open mind. I was happily surprised that the book is just as great as the television show. The author put such vivid details, that you can visualize the entire scenario in your mind’s eye. The parts I found quite comical were when Ichabod tried to understand twenty-first century slang as well as cop lingo. The story takes place between two actual episodes of the series and I thought that was really neat also. This book was seriously difficult to put down; it has everything the television series does and more! I really hated to see it end, I hope there are more of these stories coming!

The story in this book takes place after the episode "The Golem" and before the episode "The Vessel".

A Coven of witches is collecting Congressional Cross's to use in a spell to bring the witch Serilda back. It is up Abbie, Crane, Jenny, and Irving have to stop Serilda from resurrecting.

I enjoyed reading about Crane and Abbie mostly because I'm looking forward to season 2. It took me a while to realize that Serilda was the witch whose bones was burned in an episode. I would have liked it mentioned early in the story since it's not easy to remember everything that happens in the show. But my biggest problem is that I didn't find the story that interesting because I know what will happen next and I'm more interested in the future of Crane and Abbie than a story from a period that has passed.

Thank you Netgalley for providing me with a free copy for an honest review! ( )

Not bad for a tie-in book. ( )

This is a decent tie-in for fans of the television show and takes place, I believe, at a point between seasons 1 and 2. I enjoyed the dynamic between Crane and Abby during the television show, it translated well in this story. It was an original tale based in that universe and certainly had a resolution that fit in well at that point in the series. Not really a story to introduce one to the television show or for someone not familiar with the show. ( )

Children of the Revolution is a tie in book to the Sleepy Hollow series. For those whom haven’t seen the series the characters and some of the references that are made aren’t fully understood; this however is overcome by the magical events of the story. Overall it’s an interesting tale ( )
