OLDER FICTION
Delaney, Joseph

A New Darkness

(3) YA The first in an unillustrated follow-up trilogy to the Last Apprentice series shows Tom taking over the late Spook's work. The narration alternates between Tom's voice and his would-be apprentice Jenny's; Tom resists the idea of a female Spook. Last Apprentice fans will find the same creepy imagery and a few surprises, and the backstory is clear enough for readers new to the series.
