With a grisly
glow in the dark
cover,
Darren Shan's
third book in
his
Demonata series
Slawter
is now available
in paperback,
following on
from
Lord Loss
and Demon
Thief. Given
Dervish Grady"s
occult
experiences, he
seems a natural
to be called on
by a cult horror
director seeking
a consultant
for a new movie
called
Slawter
about a town of
that name
plagued by
demons.
Dervish reveals
he is one of the
Disciples who
protect our
universe from
demons
crossing over,
and there's work
to be done when
the movie starts
conjuring
up some real
nasties.
Prolific author
Darren Shan
includes
himself as a
central
character in
some of
his other books
and even though
Slawter
is part of a
set, it also
stands
alone as an
enjovable read
for all ages. |
