Description
A lonely boy in bungalow 6 is taunted by the other kids on camp. Then he meets a monster in the snow, a monster with a sense of humour. He is the only one to talk to it, but only after it has eaten the rest of bungalow 6. Dorn misses his soccer match when his father kidnaps him to be held in quarantine under machine-gun guard in Costa Rica-while they wait for the aliens to return. Zilla, a ghost , is not greedy. She does not bleed her clients dry; she milks them. After all, there is only so much blood a grown woman and a smallish girl have to spare. The world is full of things and nobody ever sees them! Nobody except for you and me. And you will see the things that nobody sees...inside Pretty Monsters the companion volume to The Wrong Grave, from the highly acclaimed sorceress of fantasy stories, Kelly Link.
