Notes on the Work
ADDED BY THE NAC AT THE REQUEST OF THE AUTHOR.
16-year-old Clayton Stonefly, who lost his parents four years ago and is being raised by his Granma Lina, just wants to be brave like Dammit, his dog, and face the town bully, Big Jim. That, or read Shakespeare on the porch alone in the Idaho wilderness.
But Clay has an unfortunate gift: he’s haunted by monstrous dreams of his family’s dead nemesis, Das Ungeheuer, and every time he tells a story, someone dies. That — and he just watched his friend, MK, suck the soul out of a man, leaving the man clawing at his chest.
Clay learns that his parents kept many secrets from him — not the least being there’s a family calling that involves monster-wrangling, his father’s murderer is on the loose, and a family axe with a mind of its own may be trying to talk him into vengeance.
