Product Description

Product Description

Sam's family are cursed with a dark and terrible secret. A secret that has its origins in a remote island off the coast of China and has haunted every generation of his family for hundreds of years. Now the curse is about to claim Sam as its next victim. It starts with an itchy rash that spreads all over his body. Then the feeling of something changing within him, coming alive. And why has he become obsessed with the marshes and their cool, muddy waters? Why has he stopped seeing his friends and going to school? As rumours begin to spread about sightings of a sinister creature on the outskirts of town, Sam is forced to face a horrifying truth. One that could destroy him...

5.0 out of 5 stars one of the only books Ive liked enough to read twice!, 9 Mar 2006
By tan-tan (England) - See all my reviews
I loved this book! and that means something because I don't love many books.
it's filled with tension to the point where I had to read it in one sitting. and I enjoyed the experience so much I read it again!!
this is a book about a teenage boy, going through changes that he can't control, so although it may have supernatural basings, it's a book that all people experiencing change can realte to!
like all transformation stories, this book is incredibly sad.
but it's also humourous and charming. mrs hare is a fabulous character!
the chapters written from different character perspectives adds a unique style of writing, increasing the tension. it's a real page turner.
I recomend it to everyone! and I cant wait for the next book to come out this summer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Scaly skin chiller, 13 Mar 2006
By A Customer
Intelligent horror, shot through with macabre black humour, about a contemporary teenager who discovers he is gradually turning into something else...The story is set against an urban background - city streets, dank canal, scrubby stretches of marshland beyond houses - and full of creepy atmosphere. Brief, gripping episodes move about in time, place and character viewpoint - a complex structure that cleverly builds into a complete picture at the climax. It's to be continued in a sequel.
