Robert D. San Souci
A set of thirteen suspenseful horror tales, with folklore and urban-legend elements and child characters encountering supernatural threats.
Robert Lawrence Stine
Expect an interactive ghost story where choices lead along different routes, rather than one fixed sequence of events.
Jeff Hart
This is a fast-moving supernatural adventure built around fugitives, pursuit and an unusual romantic triangle. Its appeal lies in alternating teenage viewpoints, comic observations and emotional conflict, while its zombie premise brings deliberately gross and frightening material.
Hillary Monahan
A dark, intense revenge fantasy about a teenager confronting sexual violence, seeking to save someone important to her and using magic that comes at a stated price. Expect horror, suspense and graphic imagery.
Garth Nix
This is a varied speculative-fiction collection rather than one continuous story. Its appeal lies in imaginative settings, changing moods and morally pressured situations, but the individual stories may differ considerably in intensity and subject matter.
Christopher Pike
Expect an unsettling horror story involving people whose identities and bodies are altered by an alien force. Its speculative premise also raises questions about humanity, control, pain and the cost of protecting others.
Jeff Kinney
A comic, eventful story about Greg’s schemes, anxieties and ambitions, with Halloween scares, school life and family friction providing the framework. Its appeal lies chiefly in mishaps and visual humour; its treatment of Greg’s choices is more consequence-driven than exemplary.
Bill Wood
This is a contained, high-pressure murder mystery with horror elements: an isolated theme park, a stalking mascot, successive deaths and a buried history that the protagonists must unravel.
Brandon Sanderson
This is a high-stakes fantasy finale about survival during spreading environmental catastrophe, as characters oppose Ruin and try to preserve a future for their world. It combines large-scale conflict with questions of faith, responsibility and sacrifice.
