Book excerpt: Cam is quick-witted and clever - sometimes too clever for his own good. When he finds himself in a spot of trouble, he's keen to take a job that will get him out of the way for a while, even if it means he doesn't look at it too closely. Tasked to take a letter to a far-off city - simple enough, you would think - he instead finds himself caught up in intrigue and dangers beyond those he was escaping, and in possession of a cursed knife he cannot get rid of. And that's before he even looks at the city's cats. The city's very unusual, unexpectedly intelligent cats. The city's unusual, intelligent and slightly magical cats, whose fates are now entwined with his.

Book excerpt: Edited by Morag Styles and written by an international team of acknowledged experts, this series provides jargon-free, critical discussion and a comprehensive guide to literary and popular texts for children. Each book introduces the reader to a major genre of children's literature, covering the key authors, major works and contexts in which those texts are published, read and studied. The development of the horror genre in children's literature has been a startling phenomenon - one that has provoked strong, but mixed, reactions. Frightening Fiction provides a lucid and lively guide to that genre, ranging from analyses of such popular series as Point Horror, Goosebumps, the X Files and the Buffy stories, to the work of individual authors such as Robert Westall, David Almond, Philip Gross and Lesley Howarth.
