Adventure, conspiracy and shapeshifting – X-Men meets Alex Rider.
Dax Jones is an ordinary schoolboy . . . until something extraordinary happens. Whilst frightened for his life, he inexplicably changes into a fox! He is offered a place at a secret government school where he can develop, and learn to control, his powers. But if Dax accepts, on no account can he tell anybody.
Dax jumps at the chance of getting away from his unhappy home. But before long he begins to wonder who exactly is behind the school, and what they want from the pupils there. Suddenly Dax’s fox senses are on high alert . . .

I really liked the characters personalities and that they were a good contrast. I like Owen Hind because he is very serious and humorous. He is not humorous very often but he is sometimes.

I read "stirring the storm" first by accident so I already new the plot and the outcome in this one but was determined to read as was strangely moved by the outcome in"stirring the storm"and also was a little confused but was a great read enjoyable adventurous different would recommend for a quick read nice and snappy very enticing to read the next one.

I love Ali Sparke's writing, she captures the reader and doesn't let go until they have heard every last word. She knows how to weave seriousness and funniness into her stories. My faverite characters in the first shape shifter book are Dax, especially when he is a fox and also the first shape shifter, the wolf who was killed by Patrick Wood. I recommend this book for people who love animals, special powers, and lots of adventure. I recommend this book for 10+.

This book was extremely interesting and how our main character has a rare ability to be a shapeshifter and he is taken to a special school with people like him that have special abilities it also makes for a great mystery.
Inspector Raccoon Taramasalata 05.09.2021
I like how this book shows you an ordinary boy ,but he actually has powers.I liked Dax best because he was the main character.Also because he was the only shape shifter. I would recommend this to people that like adventures.

I loved this book as it is such a surprise when Daz shifts into a fox. My favourite character is Gidien as he likes chocolate and so do i. I think this book is for 7-9 year olds as some of it won't make sense for small children.
