The Vampire Quest
James is an ordinary boy, but his best friend Vince is a bit... odd. For one thing, it turns out that Vince is a vampire. His parents are vampires, too. And so are the people who live at Number 38. There are vampires all over the place, it seems, but there's nothing to worry about. They like humans, and they'd never, ever do anything horrible to them. Unless the world runs out of Feed-N-Gulp, the magical vegetarian vampire brew. Which is exactly what's just happened.
Blast to the Past
While exploring a local cave system, best friends Sam and Alissa become separated from their class and stumble into an undiscovered cavern.

The two modern day children are now lost in a world of pet mammoths, fast-paced hunts, and daring escapes from the claws of saber toothed tigers. How will Sam and Alissa find their way home?

My Cousin Faustina
Jez has it all - lots of friends, star player in the football team and he's doing really well at school - that is until his distant cousin Faustina turns up. From the start Jez senses there's something odd about her but everyone around him is taken in and won over by her charms. After a series of strange events - stew which moves like worms, teachers at school going missing - Jez realises Faustina is no ordinary cousin. She needs stopping, soon, and he's the only one who can do it!
Shanghai Express
In this suspenseful tale of seduction and deception, a wealthy banker is smitten by an alluring young woman while traveling aboard the express train from Beijing to Shanghai. A consummate storyteller and one of the most popular novelists of his day, Zhang Henshui sweeps us on board with them and takes us through train stations and back and forth between first, second, and third class cars, evoking the smells of this microcosm of the urban world. We see what various travelers wear; we hear their conversations; we feel the chill or the warmth of each car; we detect a trace of perfume in one, pickled vegetables and greasy meats in another. Here is popular Chinese fiction at its best. Shanghai Express was considered "entertainment" fiction and was enormously popular in the 1930s. William Lyell’s sparkling translation at last allows an English-reading audience to share in the fun.
Shadow People

It's when he meets a girl who also claims to be able to see the shadow people that Alex's adventure really begins.
