Publisher Description

*** Watty's 2021 Winner for Horror ***

When the human race faces extinction, the scarecrows will rise.

Erin loved to build scarecrows. She made a dozen in all. Her Pa showed her how. But he's dead now. Everyone is dead. Well... almost.

The Many Years Storm flooded the world, swept Erin's brother out to sea, and turned her hilltop farm into a rapidly shrinking island. While hope remains, she must take her chances on the open ocean and find her brother. But Erin doesn't have the knowledge to build a raft and there's no one to ask except the last and most terrifying of all her scarecrows-Number Twelve!

Erin needs help. Scratch that. Erin needs a miracle.

'Return to Oz' meets 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' in Neil J Hart's award-winning adorably terrifying fantasy adventure where climate change has flooded the earth, destroyed humanity, and ushered in a grave new world!

“This novel is like no other I’ve ever read. It’s hard to compare it to anything I can think of which made it a blast to read. Erin has lost both parents and her brother to the Many Years Storm. Earth has changed and humans are dying. What is left are strange occurrences such as maniquíes that appear to be alive, scarecrows that can move and talk and even the birds are talking. In this topsy turvy world Erin leaves her little island farm into the endless blue to find her brother along with Scarecrow #12. The adventure is perilous. Erin finds Marshall a human boy who joins her. At times things are bleak but as Pa always said you have to be tested to know what you can actually endure and oh boy Erin and the others are tested. I fell in love with Scarecrow #12 even though her appearance is quite unsettling. This story made me laugh, cry, despair, rejoice and hope for a better future. The Last Scarecrow can be for middle grade up to adult. His story is so bizarre that you want to know what happens next.”

“Well I never thought I'd be crying over a scarecrow! This book was surprisingly emotional. Like, really emotional. I was a little unsure of where this story was going to go at first, since, well, live scarecrows and talking birds (and mannequins and wickerpeople, oh my!) were a large part of the story, but it all tied together really nicely. This was a great adventure book with a lot of excitement, despair, and some horror. There's something for everyone. The authors imagination really came through with this one. I would highly recommend giving this a read if you're in the mood for an adventure. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.”

“r/Fantasy 2024 Book Bingo Challenge | Self-Published or Indie Publisher What a pleasant surprise! I was looking for a book to fill my “Self or Indie Published” space on Fantasy Bingo, and I found this ARC on BookSirens. The Wattpad Winner for Horror award intrigued me, and I can say it is well deserved! The story is captivating from the beginning, I easily sunk hours into reading this. For a horror book, this was surprisingly wholesome! I highly recommend giving this book a read :) Thank you to BookSirens for this ARC.”
