Friend of the family... Or serial killer?

Uncle Zeedie is weird, but at least he's rich and his house is amazing. That's what George and Lacey tell themselves when they arrive at his isolated mansion in the Welsh woods. Only something here is worse than weird. Uncle Zeedie seems unhinged, serving them rotten food, and skulking around at night. The house is decaying, blood stained, and stinks of sour milk. And George is seeing kids that aren't there. They're dead, these kids. And if the rumours are right, Uncle Zeedie is the one who's killing them. Cover illustration by Keith Robinson.

Jennifer Jones just wants to finally win the race at sports day and have a 'proper' birthday party like Casey. If only she could find a genie lamp to grant her wishes. But not all genies live in lamps, and not all wishes turn out the way you expect …

Check out this, the first in the Blood Text horror anthology series for teens...

Evangeline's not good. She might even be a bully. But she's not a baby, so why did her Dad think bringing that freaky-looking Watching Elf would help her behaviour before Christmas?!

But then, footsteps scuttle beneath the fairy lights. Wrongdoers are attacked, each mysterious 'punishment' more violent and disturbing than the last. When she finds a tacky old horror magazine warning of a malevolent demon that flays your skin in the spirit of Christmas, Evangeline is filled with dread; is this connected to that hideous doll watching her from the hallway?

And if so, what if she is on its naughty list?

It's time to race across the multiverse and save not just one world, but all of them!

Kyan Green is getting the hang of racing through the multiverse in the Infinite Race. If he's driving a bubble-butt car through a giant's cereal bowl or riding on the back of a cosmic critter, he can't be beaten.

But when the mysterious infinity racer Spider Ace charges Kyan and his friends with a mission that has them hurtling from one universe to the next, it couldn't be more dangerous. Together the gang must race from world to world, seeking out the multiverse doubles of Kyan's devious landlord Mr Stringer and facing off in battles that could tip the balance between good and evil.

Lose a single battle, and every single parallel dimension could be in jeopardy …

Welcome, infinity racers! Prepare for an adventure that's out of this world … and all of the others!

When Kyan finds a battered old racing-car game in the loft, he doesn't believe the big claims written on the box. I mean, what kind of 'Infinite Race' only has seven pieces of track?

So it comes as a shock when the game really does take him on the journey of a lifetime – through multiple universes! Whether he's a space pilot on the trail of underwater aliens or an unwitting robber in a stolen police car, every adventure is more thrilling than the last.

When he lands in a universe as a stunt driver racing for a million-pound prize, he thinks he's found the way to save his family and their home. But the life of an infinity racer is about to prove much more dangerous than Kyan has bargained for …
