Brief Overview:

The Shapeshifter is a series written by Ali Sparkes about Dax Jones (The Shapeshifter) and his supernatural friends the COLAs. The series features many characters as well as an initial 111 COLAs who are mainly unamed with the exception of the True 11 and a few others.

[edit] Main Characters

Daxesh Robert Jones (Dax Jones) The Shapeshifter

Dax Jones, referred to as just Dax, is the main character of the series and 'The Shapeshifter'. He is one of the last of the COLAs to be found by Owen and the only shapshifter excepting the deceased 'Wolf Boy'. Dax first discovers his powers when locking in a boiling shed surrounded by the smell of white spirit. This causes him to shapshift into a Fox, his first form, in order to get his head out the shed and breathe.

From then on Dax is The Shapshifter and it is not long before Owen (One of the COLA club teachers and the man Dax looks up to most in the world) comes to get him; using a gas known as the 'tripple eight' to panic Dax into Shapeshifting. Soon after (Once Owen has explained and apologised) Dax is whisked away to Tregarren School to meet the other COLAs and become one of the students, the only Shapeshifter.

Many events unfold after this leading into another four books, five in total in which Dax develops his shapeshifting skills.

Throughout the events of the five books we eventually learn that a Shapeshifter can take on only three forms and that Dax's mum an effective 'alien' was also a shapeshifter.

Dax can become three different animals by the end of the five book; these being:

Fox - Dax's most natural form. The first he achieved and his favourite.
