Another fun read from the grandmaster.  Written as a series of letter, this a a wondrous tale filled with twins, werefox, and a grand old house.  Good for teens and adults.

City of Cannibals – Ricki Thompson

Filed under: Young Adult ::

It’s not a modern horror novel, but a well crafted historical Young Adult novel taking place in the time of Henry VIII.  Dell comes to London from the countryside where she has been told the city will eat her alive.  The atmosphere, with all the 16th century squalor portrayed, will give teens a view into that time period as well as a interesting coming of age story.
