"A Lovecraft-lite debut full of monster-fighting action and a dark-magic mystery."--BOOKLIST
Spooky, funny, and fresh, Sam Fisher's middle-grade debut explores the bonds and rivalries that are unique to siblings...even as it revels in monstrous mayhem!
Toxic Vapor Worms. Shark Hounds. King-Crab Spiders. Two-Headed Mutant Rodents.
These are just a few of the beasts featured in the pages of Scare Scape, the creepiest comic book around. They’re enough to give most kids nightmares.
Morton Clay isn’t easily frightened, though. He’s not afraid of the dark, or grossed-out by bugs and slugs. But when Morton and his siblings, James and Melissa, find an old stone statue buried in their yard, they discover that there is good reason to be afraid . . .
Mystery, humour, and menacing monsters await you in Scare Scape!
