Book Excerpt
A
howl erupted from his throat, followed by another, and then another.
Grabbing handfuls of dirt, he tried to fight the awful change, but, as
the sun set, the moon took control
of his life, and the unnatural force tore through his unwilling body.
Reason
fled, his heart raced. Falling on his hands and knees, Billy let loose a
keening cry as his face elongated, his body changing into a canine,
fangs filling his mouth.
He raced in a circle in a demented dance, knowing his fellow pack
members did the same thing.
Slowing,
he regulated his labored breathing, forcing the icy calmness he needed
to keep some semblance of reason. He peered through the dense brush.
Lights from the search
party bobbed in between the thick reeds. The odor, the stench of
humanity, filled the clearing. The enemy had arrived.
He
turned, digging furiously on the ground, throwing dirt on the campfire
flames, hiding their existence. Discovery would ruin everything. No one
could live with their kind.
Humans
brought disease; humans brought anger; humans brought hatred. They were
there; he could smell them, see their clumsy bodies splashing through
the bog.
“They’ve
found us,” he growled in the unique language they used after
transformation. “Run!” he barked as he turned to his pack, watching his
friends’ naked skin transform
until it was covered with the same silvered fur.
They
cried out in unison at the pain, howling with the injustice, and then
ran in fear from the interlopers threatening their habitat.
About the Book

Author: Michael Okon
Genre: YA
Welcome to Monsterland—the scariest place on Earth.
The last couple years of high school have not been fun for Wyatt Baldwin. His parents divorce, then his dad mysteriously dies. He’s not exactly comfortable with his new stepfather, Carter White, either. An on-going debate with his best friends Howard Drucker and Melvin over which monster is superior has gotten stale. He’d much rather spend his days with beautiful and popular Jade. However, she’s dating the brash high-school quarterback Nolan, and Wyatt thinks he doesn’t stand a chance.
But everything changes when Wyatt and his friends are invited to attend the grand opening of Monsterland, a groundbreaking theme park where guests can rock out with vampires at Vampire Village, be chased by actual werewolves on the Werewolf River Run, and walk among the dead in Zombieville.
With real werewolves, vampires and zombies as the main attractions, what could possibly go wrong?
