Product Description
From School Library Journal
Grade 4-7-These books unashamedly deliver what fans of the genre want-grim situations, shocker endings, and plots that echo everything from B-movies to Edgar Allan Poe. There are a few flashes of originality here, like jewels hidden in a mummy's dusty wrappings; a colony of underwater vampires preys on careless scuba divers; a timid boy atones at last for the cowardice he displayed in a past life. In general, however, the selections follow the "just desserts" campfire-story format. Characters enter a dangerous situation, receive and ignore dire warnings about the consequences, and meet a hideous doom as a result. These volumes make no pretense of equaling the literary suspense of John Bellairs or the atmospheric horror of Stephen King. Expect exactly what the titles promise, and make your purchasing decision accordingly.?Elaine E. Knight, Lincoln Elementary Schools, IL
