Book Synopsis



From bestselling horror master K.R. Alexander, a twisted take on a school for magic where the line between curse and survival is always shifting.

Sebastian Wight is cursed. As a boy with the forbidden ability to traverse the lands of the dead, he must not only harness his newfound powers to fight the monster that stalks him, but also to navigate a creepy world of hunting ghosts and ghouls with his eccentric classmates.

And that's only the start of his concerns.

There's also the tangled on a boy who barely looks at him twice... and the deadly family history that brought him to the halls of Gallowgate Academy in the first place.

For Sebastian Wight, fighting the dead might be hard... but it's dealing with the living that may bring him down.



About the Author



K. R. Alexander is the pseudonym for author Alex R. Kahler.

As K. R., he writes creepy middle grade books for brave young readers. As Alex -- his actual first name -- he writes fantasy novels for adults and teens. In both cases, he loves writing fiction drawn from true life experiences.

Alex has traveled the world collecting strange and fascinating tales, from the misty moors of Scotland to the humid jungles of Hawaii. He is always on the move, as he believes there is much more to life than what meets the eye.

You can learn more about his travels and other books, including Darkroom, Vacancy, Gallowgate, The Collector, The Fear Zone, and the Scare Me series, on his website: cursedlibrary.com.

This book had a suggested age of a reader between 9 and 12 years. I feel it is way more geared towards teenagers. Parents should know: Main character is a middle school aged boy who is gay. His parents are murdered. There are scary parts of this book that may not be appropriate for younger kids.
