Eddie is an award-winning author of middle-grade fiction with HarperCollins. Jay blinked in confusion. As varied and wide as the open range, several of these eerie tales feature characters and locales steeped in both history and legend. ", Ackroyd nodded. Not to mention almost as tall. Perhaps the best book in the Wild Cards series since Jetboy burst onto the scene. Its exterior was plain, almost severe, greystone, with no sign, canopy, or doorman to announce its existence.

We believe our dead stay close by to guide their foolish descendants, a belief that can be terrifying or comforting, depending on the personality of the ancestors.

The pins and needles were replaced by knives and pincers.

Sascha had never been a major-league telepath, only a skimmer plucking random thoughts off the surface of a mind, but for years his abilities had sufficed to give Chrysalis early warning of any approaching trouble. "The way my power works, I have to visualize a place real good before I can teleport anyone there. Her crystal flesh clouded with corruption and fell away from her face and body in rotten chunks. Brennan leaned back in the chair, still mildly surprised at the contentment he felt as he contemplated the upcoming day. He's strong, but I don't know if he's strong enough to do what Chrysalis's killer did to her. "Who are you?"

", "There's a better question. "Hey," Squisher said, "your money's no good here. The little Chrysalis turned and looked at Brennan.

Tall and slender, he wore a hooded cloak over a black wool suit. I knew that you two were… close… at one time. "Dead people make lousy suspects," Jay agreed.

He could see lights in the loft windows. She looked well on the road to recovery, but Brennan didn't want to jeopardize her health by waking her. ", Jay gave him a look.

"It would cut the list by seventy or eighty names, at least. A nat hostess met Brennan at the door. Callendar did not seem terribly interested.

Bones nodded. The door shattered with a crack.

Various Palace employees sat in the pew behind them, but neither Elmo nor Sascha were present. ", "Sascha Starfin is a faithful churchgoer," the priest said, "though, upon thinking about it, it has been quite a while since he's partaken of Communion.
