博客來Darkness Has A Name is a Young Adult fantasy novel set in 1960. It follows the adventures of Theo, an almost thirteen-year-old boy, as he navigates the perils of junior high school-a place filled with tedious classes, local bullies, and a girl for whom he harbors a secret crush. Little does Theo realize that he will soon find himself caught between two very different worlds hurtling toward each other, destined to collide in a terrifying battle of good and evil.
Dark, mysterious female creatures known as Banshees inhabit the first world. Their piercing screams announce the approach of death and a journey to the other world. Perched atop a mountain of skulls, like a fearsome bird of prey, sits their brooding queen goddess, Morrigan. She is a dangerous, yet hauntingly beautiful creature with long, flowing hair and intense, probing eyes. She reigns supreme over her black-robed minions, while angrily brooding the loss of a darkly powerful bracelet.
An ocean away lies Theo’s world, where he struggles with the curse of being small for his age, younger than his classmates, and decidedly unable to do anything cool. He remains blissfully unaware that his simple life is about to become more complicated and much more dangerous. Just weeks into the school year, something painful happens in his family that gives him the ability to see ghosts, but even more terrifying, to see Banshees. This dramatically complicates his interactions with family, friends, and even enemies. It leads to Theo discovering new powers, confronting a formidable adversary, testing new friendships, and forming an unlikely alliance as events spiral toward a deadly confrontation.
