In the town of Hawkins Hollow, it's called The
Seven
. Every seven years, on the seventh day of the seventh month, strange things happen. It began when three young boys-Caleb, Fox, and Gage-went on a camping trip to The Pagan Stone. And twenty-one years later, it will end in a showdown between evil and the boys who have become men-and the women who love them.

Excellent Collection
I love this series thus far.
Blood
Brothers
and The Hollow, in my opinion are one of the best series that I have read, I am an avid Nora Roberts fan and I own everything she has ever written, I love it and cannot wait for the third to be released in November
Could have been better, but decent!
What would you do if you were 10 years old and your actions unwittingly allowed a demon to escape? A demon who rises every
seven
years for seven days? A demon who reeks havoc in a small town you love, and hurts innocent people? How will the guilt and regret shape and develop you as a person? These issues are at the crux of Nora Roberts "
Sign
of 7"
trilogy
.
Three friends (Gage, Fox and Cal) head into the woods, for a night of freedom to celebrate their 10th birthday. They plan to eat junk food (Little Debbie's), smoke cigarettes, drink a little beer and look at Playboy magazines. To solidify their camaraderie and friendship, they complete a
blood
oath which opens a cage that was closed centuries ago letting out an unspeakable evil. Unfortunately, this cage contained some entity who returns every 7 years for 7 days to cause trouble in town of Hawkins Hollow. During these seven days, people do things they normally would never do. Things that they later don't remember or understand. Now grown men, with careers of their own, these three friends dedicate themselves to "cleaning up" the mess resulting from their childhood misadventure. Vowing to return home whenever the need arises. However, soon three women (Cybil, Quinn and Layla) arrive in Hawkins Hollow, and find themselves drawn to not only the town, but the three men. As the six friends attempt to decipher the mystery of the Pagan Stone, they also draw closer to each other.
My only criticism is that...to me...Roberts could have made this one good
book
versus stretching it out into three! The effort to make it a trilogy really takes away from the pace of the novel, and at times from the story. The action is sporadic and at times non-existent, which makes the story feel forced. So by the time the bad guy shows up (in either the form of a dog or a small boy), it is not that scary, but anticipated by the reader. However, in order to see how the demon is defeated, and how the relationships continue to evolve between the characters, I intend to read the remaining two books in the series. Because when it is all said and done, Nora Roberts is a wonderful writer, and hopefully, in the next two, I will see more of that.
