Labyrinth of Souls

"Your next favorite book featuring a magical school is here. Get this one for young readers in your life who want their stories full of action, adventure, fantasy, and mystery." --Lora Senf, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of the Blight Harbor books

A darkly inventive fantasy for fans of Tim Burton about a girl who can see Nightmare creatures from the forbidden Labyrinth of Souls, now in paperback!

In the Kingdom of Spinar, there are seven rules for safeguarding your soul from the Sorrows and Nightmare creatures--most importantly: never, ever enter the Labyrinth of Souls.

Ix Tatterfall has always been an outcast with big secrets: She can cross into the Labyrinth, home to the powerful Sorrows, and she can see strange Nightmare beasts when no one else can. Some, like shadowy Inklings, are merely a nuisance, but others are dangerous. Even deadly.

On one forbidden trip into the Labyrinth, Ix is apprehended by an elite magical group that protects the kingdom against Nightmares. Instead of punishment, Ix is allowed to enter their mysterious academy. For the first time, she's surrounded by people like her.

But something has gone wrong in the Labyrinth. A terrible new Nightmare--a raggedy scarecrow called Jack--has been ravaging the misty maze, gobbling up lost souls and allowing Nightmares to escape. And as more of these shadowy creatures bleed into the Waking World, it becomes clear Jack is on the hunt for something-- someone. Ix Tatterfall herself.
