| Summary | "Dick Kent at Half-Way House" by Milton Richards is a novel aimed at young readers that was likely written in the early 20th century. The book follows the adventures of Dick Kent and his friends, who are caught up in a thrilling exploration through the wilderness, drawn into conflicts with nefarious characters and facing various challenges as they try to uncover the truth behind a practical joke, which they later suspect masks something more sinister. The opening of the story introduces Dick Kent along with his companions, Toma, a young Indian, and Sandy, as they set foot on a mysterious island searching for the remains of a dinosaur. Their expedition quickly turns comical as they realize they’ve been the victims of a cruel joke crafted by Mr. Frazer, the factor at Half-Way House. As tensions rise, they encounter not just the eerie presence of the dinosaur's bones but also the looming threat of local outlaws, Wolf Brennan and Toby McCallum, hinting at upcoming peril. The initial playful investigation shifts into a more serious tone as the characters must navigate both the rugged wilderness and the treachery that surrounds them, setting the stage for an engaging adventure filled with suspense and camaraderie.
