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?

From the Back Cover

It begins with a ride on a train.

But where it ends is on a precipice of horror - dangling on the border between life and death.

It's a moment when Kyle discovers he's not the only one in his class who knows about fear.

Not the only one who has nightmares.

And now, as Death stalks the carriages, it's a moment when nightmares become real.

Nightmares of wars, and a world devastated by chemical weapons. Of a body being slowly stolen, bit by bit. Of monstrous actions and monstrous creatures from old myths. Of jealousy, obsession and a stalker outside your window. Nightmares of everything imaginable.

What will it take for Kyle to finally face his greatest fear?

Pacy, compelling and seriously creepy, don't read this chilling novel late at night!

Not suitable for younger readers.
