Werewolves are the myth. Prowlers are the savage reality.Jack Dwyer has a new enemy...a vicious, ravenous beast brings a new dimension of terror to the third in Christopher Golden's spectacular dark fantasy series. Ever since his best friend Artie was brutally murdered by the savage predators known as Prowlers, Jack Dywer has been able to see and communicate with ghosts. Now Artie, along with other spirits who inhabit the limbo known as the Ghostlands, helps Jack in his quest to track down and eliminate the Prowler threat. But Artie's latest information is startling: The Ghostlands itself is under threat from a new and terrible entity known only as the Ravenous. The Ravenous is stalking the inhabitants of the Ghostlands and destroying them. Those who fall prey to it suffer the ultimate death. For them, there is no longer the chance to move on or be at peace. There is only oblivion. So many times the spirits have helped Jack hunt down or escape the Prowlers. Now it is his turn to save them from the Ravenous -- if he can do so without endangering himself. For Jasmine, the Prowlers' new leader, has ordered her pack to wipe out Jack and his allies at any cost. Jack needs Artie to help him keep the vengeful Prowlers at bay. But the Ravenous is on Jack's trail, and contact with the Ghostlands will lead the supernatural killer straight to him. His links with the dead are a double-edged sword -- and Jack is not sure whether he can avoid being cut...

Two new books on indigenous peoples and conservation have been added to naturalist Michael Chinery's exciting series Secrets of the Rainforest. Each colorful book shows us the wonderful array of plants and animals that live in the lush wildernesses of the world's tropical rainforests. Acting as the earth's lungs, the rainforests are of vital importance to the planet and to the many indigenous peoples who have traditionally lived in harmony with their lush surroundings. Children will learn how conservationists are struggling to preserve these last remaining wildernesses for future generations.Predators and Prey takes a look at the animals that feed on the plant and insect-eating animals of the rainforest. Exciting illustrations help depict the hunting practices and ways of life of rainforest predators from hungry piranhas that live in the water to sharp-eyed cats that hunt by night on the forest floor, and eagles that swoop down from the canopy's treetops.Topics Include: -- insects and insect-eaters-- feathered predators-- cold-blooded hunters-- danger in the water-- tree-top carnivores-- mighty hunters

The books in this Visual Explorers series feature page after page of dramatic, full-color photographs.
