YALast Apprentice series.
Illustrated by
Patrick Arrasmith.
As always, this series' take on supernatural lore is as dark as Arrasmith's striking black-saturated illustrations. Spook's apprentice Tom is presented with a difficult decision: saving his master and defeating the Fiend for good will require Tom to betray someone he's closest to. Strong-stomached series fans who've lasted this long will welcome this horrifying, danger-ridden tenth installment.
