4-6Dark Hunter series.
Illustrated by
Nelson Evergreen.
These hi-lo horror tales pit the Dark Hunter and his two young assistants, Mary and Edgar, against a vampire, a witch, and a demonic ship. Fueled more by suspense than gore, each slight story employs action and stripped-down dialogue to hook reluctant readers. Frequent illustrations and roomy layouts light on text will keep readers moving. There are three other fall 2015 books in this series. Review covers these Dark Hunter titles: Ship of Death, The Red Thirst, and The Stone Witch.
