Book Description
Come home...if you dare! Doreen Addison wants nothing more than to provide a good life for her six foster children. When they are forced to move out of their home, Doreen is thrilled to find the perfect house for a bargain price. But is the new Addison House too good to be true? Their reclusive neighbor hints at the house’s grisly history and warns they’ll regret the move, but it's just what Doreen was looking for: a big, inexpensive, and secluded refuge for the children. Almost from the start, unexplained accidents and strange occurrences plague Doreen and her charges. And some of the children are showing disturbing personality changes. Why is 13-year-old Karen, who loves make up and the latest fashions, suddenly insisting such things are “evil”? What made 10-year-old Randy turn from a happy, rambunctious little boy into a child obsessed with only the darkest passages of the Bible? And who is the mysterious, beautiful woman in black that only 5-year-old Cindy seems to see? To complicate matters, Doreen can’t help falling for her handsome neighbor, Brendan Delacorte, who offers protection and always seems to be there when Doreen needs him. Can he help her solve the mystery of Addison House, before unseen evil destroys all that Doreen has loved and worked for? The only thing that can save them from destruction is to discover the secret of the woman in black who commands them all to COME DOWN INTO DARKNESS. PRAISE FOR CLARE MCNALLY: “A macabre imagination and a tight rein on your nerves are required for McNally's latest release.” —Publishers Weekly on Good Night Sweet Angel “You won’t sleep after you read this one!” —The West Orange Times on Somebody Come and Play

Book Description
No Stuffy has ever gone into the Darkness and returned.... Clark can’t wait to go away to camp this year. For the first time ever, he has actual friends to hang out with. Catherine-Lucille and D. A. will both be at Camp I Can with Clark, and C. L. has already promised to induct him into her exclusive camp club—the one for campers who know everything there is to know about the world of Monsters and how Stuffies protect kids from them. And now that he knows (or suspects . . . very strongly) that his grandma-made Stuffy, Foon, heroically saved his own father from a horrible fate, Clark is obviously bringing Foon to camp along with him. But once Clark gets to camp, he and his friends discover things are off. There are strange, gooey findings in some of the bunks, the adults are acting weird, and, worst of all, their Stuffies and dolls go missing right at the moment they need them the most—when they go on the intersession camping trip and end up trapped in a creepy old cabin. What Clark and his friends don’t know, and what the mighty Foon soon discovers, is that the Monsters have launched a revenge campaign against Foon—a campaign that entails sucking the very life out of Clark. Now it’s up to Foon to enter the World of Darkness and take on the Monster in charge in order to stop the plot and save Clark’s life. In the long tradition of Stuffies vs. Monsters, this one’s a battle for the ages—one that will certainly go down in Stuffy history.

Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
WINNER OF THE ARTHUR C. CLARKE AWARD • “A stunning novel and a beautiful evocation of a truly alien world.”—Sunday Times (UK) “Beckett renders the terror of the darkness beyond the forests with a riveting deftness that evokes all primordial fears of the unknown.”—N. K. Jemisin, The New York Times Book Review On the alien, sunless planet they call Eden, the 532 members of the Family take shelter beneath the light and warmth of the Forest’s lantern trees. Beyond the Forest lie the mountains of the Snowy Dark and a cold so bitter and a night so profound that no man has ever crossed it. The Oldest among the Family recount legends of a world where light came from the sky, where men and women made boats that could cross the stars. These ships brought us here, the Oldest say—and the Family must only wait for the travelers to return. But young John Redlantern will break the laws of Eden, shatter the Family and change history. He will abandon the old ways, venture into the Dark . . . and discover the truth about their world. Already remarkably acclaimed in the United Kingdom, Dark Eden is science fiction as literature: part parable, part powerful coming-of-age story, set in a truly original alien world of dark, sinister beauty and rendered in prose that is at once strikingly simple and stunningly inventive. Praise for Dark Eden “A linguistic and imaginative tour de force.”—The Guardian (UK) “Captivating and haunting . . . human plight and alien planet are both superbly evoked.”—Daily Mail (UK) “Pure astonishment and pleasure, a storytelling ride full of brio and wonder.”—Locus

Pages : 642
Book Description
For the first time in an omnibus edition, this duology tells the tale of a twilight age for magic, as one ancient mage tries to hide the secrets that might destroy the world. It is the twilight of the mages.... Only one of these terrifying and mysterious men still remains--the difficult and enigmatic Lord Eldrich. More than one hundred and thirty years of age, but appearing no older than forty, Eldrich dwells in seclusion, his precious knowledge disclosed to no one, his very existence subject to speculation. For motives of his own, he has dedicated his life to eliminating all remaining vestiges of magic in the world. But his work does not go unchallenged: for there are those sworn to preserve the very lore Eldrich is striving to eradicate. Fanatical followers of a long-dead mage-apprentice, the Tellerites will stop at nothing to reclaim the forbidden powers of the magical arts--even if it means braving Eldrich's wrath and descending into the perilous depths of a labyrinthine cave system, in search of secrets that have lain hidden since the time of the first mage.
