"As if Harry Potter was written for grown-ups, Peter Straub's Shadowland delivers carnage, blood, pain, fairy tales, and flashes of joy and wonder, just like real magic."--Grady Hendrix

You have been there...if you have ever been afraid.

Come back. To a dark house deep in the Vermont woods, where two friends are spending a season of horror, apprenticed to a Master Magician.

Learning secrets best left unlearned. Entering a world of incalculable evil more ancient than death itself. More terrifying. And more real.

Only one of them will make it through.
