"Splendid . . .what really sells this imaginative, scary, verge-of-growin g-up tale is its characters, each with a distinct voice and personality. . . . Kois' surprising second novel is a natural for fans of the character-ba sed horror fiction of Grady Hendrix or Paul Tremblay and will win him a who le new sphere of readers." --Booklist "Marvelous, tender, and unpredictable, Hampton Heights captures the uncanni ness and discomfort of early adolescence. There's a pinch of Ray Bradbury, a soupon of Stephen King, a dash of fairy tale logic, but Dan Kois makes s omething entirely his own out of this familiar and always pleasurable terri tory."--Kelly Link, author of The Book of Love "Like Stand by Me mixed with Stranger Things and The Twilight Zone, Hampton Heights is a rollicking chronicle of youth set loose among mystery and mon sters.Dan Kois deftly conjures a boundless world that's chilling, wondrou s, and delightful."--Adam Sternbergh, author of The Eden Test From the author of the Washington Post notable novel Vintage Contemporaries , something completely unexpected: a hair-raising and rollicking adventure set on one night in 1987, when six paperboys must confront a slew of monste rs as well as their own personal demons in a haunted Midwestern neighborhoo d. On a cold winter's evening in 1987, six middle-school paperboys wander an unfamiliar Milwaukee neighborhood, selling newspaper subscriptions, fueled by their manager Kevin's promises of cash bonuses and dinner at Burger King.
