Delaney, Joseph

The Ghost Prison

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Scott M. Fischer. Fifteen-year-old orphan Billy takes a job as a castle prison guard, only to learn that ghosts there have sinister plans for him. Slightly younger readers who want the excitement of Delaney's Last Apprentice books will enjoy this eerie but manageable horror novella. Spooky sketchlike black-and-white illustrations adorn almost every page and add to the story's old-fashioned flavor.
