OLDER FICTION

Night of the Bat

(4) YA Teenage Jake Lefkovitz visits the Amazonian jungle, where his scientist father is studying bats. When a giant bat terrorizes the research camp, killing several workers and severely injuring Dr. Lefkovitz, Jake faces down the animal in a fight to the death. Despite cardboard characterizations and a predictable plot, the novel's tight focus and many gory scenes will draw horror fiction fans.
