Product Description
Book Description
A fantastic, spine-tingling new book by award-winning author Malorie Blackman
Product Description
Kyle has always been afraid of things, especially dying. But when he gets on the train that is taking him and his class on a school trip, he has no idea how close to Death he is going to come. Death enters the train and Kyle moves with him, past his friends, who are frozen in time, in life-or-death situations. Kyle finds that he can pick up on their deepest, darkest fears - real things that have happened to them, or may happen in the future, and sometimes their surreal nightmares too.
Kyle realises that he isn't the only one who has buried fears and, more importantly, he now burns with the desire to live, and to live without fear. But will Death release him?

excellent,
By BG123 "bgy7" (London, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Stuff of Nightmares (Hardcover)
It would be difficult for any reader to write their next big novel after writing the iconic 'Noughts and Crosses' series. But Malorie Blackman, in typical style, pulls it off again.
This time, Blackman enters the realms of fantasy horror, through the eyes of a doubting child. With its rather unusual plot, the book describes how the main character 'hops' into other people's nightmares after a school trip goes terrible wrong. The ending is perhaps the only weak point of the book, it leaves you feeling almost empty after the fullness of the rest of the book. The book is truly spooky, with some of the nightmares truly spine-shivering material. Thanks you Malorie for another great read.

Gripping Nightmares!,

This review is from: The Stuff of Nightmares (Hardcover)
Bought for my 12 year old son Kyle who really enjoyed the story particularly as the main character was a Kyle too! It held his attention really well and written by an author who he really likes. Malorie Blackman really knows how to grab a young persons attention and how to keep hold of it throughout by ensuring something is always happening and a really good use of langauge. She is indeed a special writer and can write for children of all ages. Kyle has now read 5 of her books and continues to work his way through the rest of her books and has enjoyed every single one of them so far!

Amazing!,

This review is from: The Stuff of Nightmares (Paperback)
I was browsing through my library's teenager section and when I saw "Malorie Blackman", I instanlty remembered my school friends recommend it.
I simply couldn't put the book down! It's scary, yet fantastically well written...I'd go so far to say it's the best book I've ever read! Since reading this book (which took me two days), I've become a massive fan of Blackman and I am currently reading Naughts and Crosses, which is fantastic too! Since I began to read Malorie Blackman, I've been literally too busy to even consider homework which gets me long detentions, but by god is it worth it! I'd recommend this book to anyone aged 12-18+.
