INTERMEDIATE FICTION

Angel and Bavar

(4) 4-6 Bavar, a boy with a strange appearance, is the only line of defense against monsters from another world. He reluctantly accepts friendship from Angel; when it turns out she was orphaned by the creatures, they learn their stories are inextricably connected. With brief, alternating-perspective chapters and a brisk plot, the moody, Gothic ambiance of this "Beauty and the Beast"–inspired tale never has time to settle.
