YAUndertaken Trilogy series.
With his father missing, Silas and his mother return to the family's ancestral home of Lichport, a place haunted by ghosts, graves, and talking corpses. Silas learns of his magical birthright, but he must contend with a murderous relative. Berk's gothic novel is slow paced, but it's filled with intriguing ideas and genuine creepiness.
