Book Description
Meet Suee: Twelve years old, wears her hair to the left in a point, favors a black dress, has no friends—and she likes it that way! When Suee transfers to the dull and ordinary Outskirts Elementary, she doesn’t expect to hear a strange voice speaking to her from the darkness of the school’s exhibit room, and she certainly doesn’t expect to see her shadow come to life. Then things start to get really weird: One by one, her classmates at school turn into zombie-like, hollow-eyed Zeroes. While Suee investigates why this is happening, her shadow gains power. Soon, Suee must confront a stunning secret that her shadow has been hiding under her own two feet—something very dark and sinister that could put Suee and her newfound friends at risk!

Pages : 360
Book Description
Either I defeat the monster, or I become the monster. As if being locked up in the crazy house wasn't bad enough, I wake up to discover that my nightmares are coming true. As in, the person I trust most in the world just morphed into a bloodthirsty monster. My only chance for escape comes in the form of two women calling out from within a shimmering tunnel that just popped open from out of nowhere. So, it's either stick around and be murdered or jump through some kind of portal. And there I was thinking my new meds were working. I take Door Number Two and find myself ushered into the world of the Shadow Order, an ancient society of witches whose mission is protecting the covens. (Who me, a witch? Well, that sure explains a few things.) I'm given a choice: I can either go it alone and take my chances, or join their magical training program. Seeing as one option involves dying, I soon find myself alongside other young witches learning how to hone their magic. The problem being I didn't even know I had magic, never mind how to use it. There's also the small issue of it being unique enough to act as some sort of monster-luring beacon. While we know next to nothing about the supernatural psycho on the loose, we do know it changes form by hopping in and out of other peoples' bodies. And, right now, the body it wants most is mine. Why don't I find that flattering?

Shadow Moon
Author: Chris Claremont
Publisher: Spectra
ISBN: 1984800035
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 547
Book Description
From two of the greatest imaginations of our time comes a magnificent novel of adventure and magic...SHADOW MOON: First in the Chronicles of the Shadow War. The genius of Star Wars(r) creator George Lucas and the vision of Chris Claremont, the author of the phenomenally bestselling The Uncanny X-Men adventures, merge in what must be the fantasy event of the year. In Shadow Moon, war and chaos have gripped the land of Tir Asleen. An ancient prophecy reveals one hope: a savior princess who will ascend to the throne when the time is right. But first, a Nelwyn wanderer must face forces of unimaginable malevolence and dangerous, forbidden rites of necromancy that could bring back a powerful warrior from soulless sleep. George Lucas reshaped filmmaking in the '70s and '80s with his Star Wars and Indiana Jones films. When Bantam Books asked Lucas if he had any stories he would like to develop as novels rather than as films, Lucas turned to his 1988 fantasy film, Willow. "When I wrote the story for Willow, I began with the pre-story," Lucas said, "but the full story was yet to be told." Now, Lucas's vision is being fulfilled with the talented help of Chris Claremont. Having previously taken the reins of what was for a decade the bestselling comic in the western hemisphere (The Uncanny X-Men) Claremont assumes the reponsibility of foster parent to Lucas's creation. On sale in hardcover now, and available on BDD Audio Cassette as well, SHADOW MOON is a momentous new adventure for readers looking to spend part of this summer in a fantastic world. SHADOW MOON is one of Bantam Spectra's most exciting publishing events in 1995, the year we celebrate our 10th Anniversary as the premiere publishing imprint of books of speculative fiction.
