The brand new must-read middle-grade novel from the author of Crater Lake. Perfect for 9+ fans of R. L. Stine' s Goosebumps. There' s a new craze at Dread Wood High. Flinch is a game of fear. The more you scare your friends, the more points on the app you get. At first it' s fun, but soon fun is replaced by fear. And Angelo and his friends notice that everyone is behaving more and more strangely every day - almost as if something is taking over their brains. . . With the fair arriving in town, adrenaline and excitement levels are high. But who are the people behind the super-creepy clown masks? With fights breaking out and Flinch in full force, it' s time for the final showdown at the Fear Ground. Let the REAL games begin!

On the first Dread Wood book:"Deliciously scary and hilarious comedy-horror, perfectly pitched for eight-plus. " The Guardian"Brilliantly creepy fun for young horror fans, with an unexpectedly moving ending. "The i, 30 of the best children' s books for Easter. "Jennifer Killick' s talent for horror and humour is blended brilliantly here as the spiky dialogue, unstoppable pace and genuinely menacing atmosphere build to a tremendous climax"- Daily Mail"A heart-stopping thrill ride of a book. " M. G. Leonard, author of Adventures on Trains series"Sharp, scary and a whole lot of fun!" Christopher Edge, author of Escape Room "This is BRILLIANT! Creepy, pacy, smart, witty and just pure Jennifer genius. " Vashti Hardy, author of Brightstorm "This is Killick' s best book yet; think ' The Breakfast Club' meets ' Stranger Things' , making great use of her talent for comic dialogue and her astute eye for just the right kind of scary for this age group. " Fiona Noble, Bookseller, Editor' s ChoiceDread Wood is the superb, super-scary and super-cool new horror-comedy story from the brilliant Jennifer Killick. After her last two books (the fantastically creepy Crater Lake and Crater Lake: Evolution), Jennifer has, yet again, upped the level of stylishly slick, sinister storylines and honed her clever range of shock / comedy techniques - from the laugh-out-loud, nose-snortingly funny moments, to the cheekily edgy asides, to the poignant warm-hearted, gentle, fun scenes she does so well. - ReadingZone (Book of the Day, February 16th)"Spine-tingling, rib-tickling stuff. " - Chris Callaghan, author of The Great Chocoplot
