Lost Boys

By Orson Scott Card
Lost Boys by Orson Scott Card digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

For Step Fletcher, his pregnant wife DeAnne, and their three children, the move to tiny Steuben, North Carolina, offers new hope and a new beginning. But from the first, life for eight-year-old Stevie is an unending parade of misery and disaster. Cruelly ostracized at his school, Stevie retreats further and further into himself—and into a strange computer game and a group of imaginary friends. But there is something eerie about his loyal, invisible new playmates: each shares the name of a child who has recently vanished from the sleepy Southern town. And terror grows for Step and DeAnne as the truth slowly unfolds. For their son has found something savagely evil . . . and it's coming for Stevie next. "For Stephen King fans and those who like their suspense mixed with the supernatural." — "Absorbing . . . the pull of family drama with an overlayer of rising supsense." —

Lost Boys Reviews

3.5
“I found this book in the horror section of Libby. I wouldn’t say this is a horror book. What happens at the end is horrific but it is more emotion than horror. However, I liked this book very much. The characters were so well written and the family dynamic was so strong I truly felt for these characters. The family relationship was very well crafted. Some may say this book is about nothing but I think it showed the ins and outs of life while trying to juggle a family. Because of this when you get to the end you are a crying mess because you feel for the family.”
