Skeleton Creek

Skeleton Creek has been sitting on my shelf for awhile waiting for me to pick it up!! Ryan and Sarah are forced to stay apart because they just can't seem to stay out of trouble. Ryan ends up getting seriously hurt on their visit to a local haunted dredge and Sarah becomes determined to find out who or what is haunting the old building.  It's a quick read, but boy did I look forward to the videos!  The videos add just the right twist to the story line with a tad bit of spookiness and fear thrown in! This book is the first in a series of four books.

Rot and Ruin! What a fantastic book!

Are you looking for a book filled with adventure, mixed with a little bit of romance, a dash of slaying, and a cup full of zombies?  Well, you've found it here.  Come check out one of the newest books to our collection and the first book in a series of four by the author, Jonathon Maberry. I loved this book so much that I bought two copies of it because I knew it was going to be a hit!  Let me sum it up for you: two brothers, one job - to compassionately kill the zombies that used to be someone's family, fighting the wicked  and dangerous zombie hunters who don't respect life (alive or dead), and to find a piece of civilization left from the days before the virus came and destroyed the world. Check out this author interview:
