Description: As Hallowe'en approaches, strange things are happening in the basement of Uncle Henry's funeral parlor, where 10-year-old Bridget Ann (nicknamed "Dragonfly") lives. Uncle Henry summons his friend Mothkin, a hunter, to investigate. Exploring the basement, Mothkin and Dragonfly find the door to a strange underground place they will soon know as Harvest Moon. Here, the evil master Samuel Hain (who takes great pride in having started the black plague) has enslaved the entire population. You'll meet assorted vampires, werewolves, gypsies, Hain's cutthroat henchman, and the ever-present "Jolly Jack," Hain's airborne, pumpkin-shaped battle-cruiser, which leaves death and destruction in its wake. This epic fantasy novel, by a new writer, is one of the most delightful, scariest stories we've read in many years. Dragonfly can be read on several levels -- as pure entertainment, as a classic adventure yarn, as a conflict between good and evil -- by people of all ages.
