Children of the Dark
Fifteen-year-old Will Burgess is used to rough times. Abandoned by his father, son of a drug-addicted mother, and charged with raising his six-year-old sister, Will has far more to worry about than most high school freshmen. To make matters worse, Mia Samuels, the girl of Will's dreams, is dating his worst enemy, the cruelest upperclassman at Shadeland High. Will's troubles, however, are just beginning. Because one of the nation's most notorious criminals-the Moonlight Killer-has escaped from prison and is headed straight toward Will's hometown. And something else is lurking in Savage Hollow, the forest surrounding Will's rundown house. Something ancient and infinitely evil. When the worst storm of the decade descends on Shadeland, Will and his friends must confront unfathomable horrors. Everyone Will loves-his mother, his little sister, Mia, and his friends-will be threatened. And very few of them will escape with their lives. 'One of the best writers in modern horror to come along
Children of the Dark 2
Last summer, sixteen-year-old Will Burgess lost many of the people he loved most. Now he's imprisoned in the Sunny Woods Rehabilitation Center, a facility for troubled youths. Separated from his surviving loved ones and terrified of a change inside him, Will is tormented by a new group of bullies and a sadistic government doctor. When his only ally, an orderly named Pierre, tells him there have been sightings of winged creatures with glowing red eyes, Will believes him. Because Will has seen the Night Flyers too. Even worse, he learns the monstrous Children are still lurking underground. They want revenge on Will and will stop at nothing to destroy everyone he cares about. Will and his friends, new and old, must band together to fight the forces of darkness-both human and supernatural. But as Will learned last summer, evil is relentless. And it won't rest until its hunger is sated. 'One of the best writers in modern horror to come along in the last decade. Janz is one of my new
