Original Title: Don't Fear the Reaper
Series: The Death Chronicles #1
Author: William F. Houle & J.E. Taylor
Genre: Middle Grade Fantasy
Links: Amazon | B&N | Smashwords
The day Nick Ramsay’s eighth-grade teacher drops dead in his classroom, Nick sees his first reaper. When another cloaked figure appears at his grandmother’s bedside, Nick issues an order for the vile creature to leave her alone.
This simple act of defiance creates a domino effect that brings Fate and Death to Nick’s door and reveals his true lineage, throwing his world into chaos. To make matters worse, a group of rogue reapers declares war on humanity and Nick is the only one who can stop them.
A world without books would be an unimaginative bore.
I cannot fathom a world without books. Even in prehistoric times, carvings on the wall told stories and eventually the stories passed from generation to generation were finally captured on paper. While telling a ghost story around the fire is a tradition in some families, it cannot compare to reading a full-bodied and frightening story under the covers by flashlight – especially those books considered taboo.
Books stroke the imagination, fuel thoughts and dreams, and ignite passion like no other form of entertainment.
