Books with title Odd Lot: Stories to Chill the Heart

This is a revised edition (2015) of the 2003 collection of 15 weird tales that was named one of five Bram Stoker Award finalists in the Young Readers category. This version costs less because it doesn't have the Jessica Hagerman pen-and-ink cover and illustrations, just the stories. The original book was eventually a runner-up to winner Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Even Odder is number two in the four-book Stories to Chill the Heart series by Steve Burt, whose FreeKs psychic teen detectives series recently won the Florida Book Festival grand prize and four Mom's Choice Awards.

In any storytelling, but especially in fantasy/horror, there is one thing that is critically important if you want to have your toenails curl and leave holes in your bedspread from gripping it convulsively when you listen before sleep. It is that you have to care about the characters, or else who cares what happens to them? Steve Burt is a master at creating real folks, folks you like, folks you want to scream at so they don't go into that dark room alone. Couple that with an imagination that won't quit and a storytelling style that grabs you by the shirt front and pulls you in, and you'd better fasten your seat belt before listening to Odd Lot. Because you're in for a heck of a ride!
