故事发生在美国缅因州小镇德里。

一个雨天,威廉给弟弟乔治做了艘纸船,弟弟高高兴兴出门去街上放船,不久后却惨死在下水道口。接下来镇上不断有小孩失踪或夭折,警察的搜寻却毫无结果。威廉的父母沉浸在丧子的悲痛中,对威廉不闻不问。

暑假里,难过而孤独的威廉与六个在学校不受欢迎的孩子组成了“窝囊废俱乐部”。小伙伴们发现他们几乎都曾见过一个诡异的家伙——“它”。“它”变化多端,有时是拿着气球的小丑,有时是巨鸟,有时是排水管内的低语和汩汩冒出的鲜血……唯一不变的是,“它”每次在德里出现,都会夺走数十个孩子的生命。

“窝囊废俱乐部”决定向“它”宣战。重创“它”之后,七个孩子约定,若“它”再次出现,他们会重新聚首,直面邪恶。

孩子们一个个离开了德里,除了迈克。离开的六个孩子长大后事业顺风顺水,成功得几近诡异,分别成为作家、建筑师、服装设计师、会计师、电台主持人和车行老板。他们仿佛从记忆中删除了德里,删除了那个夏天。

二十七年后,电话铃声响起,仿佛命运的召唤。只是,这次有人缺席,他用尽最后的力气,在镜子上写下一个鲜血淋漓的大字:它。

Mice

Product Description

An electrifying psychological thriller about a mother and daughter pushed to their limits.

Shelley and her mom have been menaced long enough. Excused from high school where a trio of bullies nearly killed her, and still reeling from her parents' humiliating divorce, Shelley has retreated with her mother to the quiet of Honeysuckle Cottage in the countryside. Thinking their troubles are over, they revel in their cozy, secure life of gardening and books, hot chocolate and Brahms by the fire. But on the eve of Shelley's sixteenth birthday, an unwelcome guest disturbs their peace and something inside Shelley snaps. What happens next will shatter all their certainties-about their safety, their moral convictions, the limits of what they are willing to accept, and what they're capable of.

Debut novelist Gordon Reece has written a taut tale of gripping suspense, packed with action both comic and terrifying. Shelley is a spellbinding narrator, and her delectable mix of wit, irony, and innocence transforms the major current issue of bullying into an edge- of-your-seat story of fear, violence, family loyalty, and the outer reaches of right and wrong.

About the Author

Originally from the United Kingdom, Gordon Reece studied English literature at Keble College, Oxford, before emigrating to Spain and then Australia, where he has lived since 2005. In the UK and Spain, he has published several illustrated children's books and graphic novels. Mice is his American debut and first novel.

Complete Books of Blood

From Publishers Weekly Published last year in Britain as three paperback originals, these short narratives garnered impressive reviews. This edition, Barker's first hardcover appearance in America, gathers together 16 stories in one volume as the author originally intended and contains eerily effective illustrations by fantasy artists J. K. Potter and Harry O. Morris. The tales are of varying quality and will please mostly readers who like their horror bloody and graphic. An occasional reliance on hokey set-ups and deus ex machinas, and the frequent shifting of intention in mid-story are jarring qualities, however. Further, a pervasive misanthropy colors the narratives and makes them unpleasant in a way the author probably didn't intend. The best entry, "Human Remains," about a male hustler and his doppelganger, isthe only one in which the author actually seems to like his protagonist.Also good are the almost dreamlike"New Murders in the Rue Morgue," "Scape-goats," about an island that is an altar to the drowned, and "Son of Celluloid," which generates a full complement of chills. Ramsey Campbell has contributed a lavishly praiseful introduction.

From Library Journal This Stealth edition (www.stealthpress.com) marks the first time that Barker's six horror books published in 1984 and 1985 have been released as a single volume the way the author intended. Barker continues to draw readers, so this is definitely worth adding to horror collections.
