Description
New York Times bestselling, acclaimed horror author Paul Tremblay delivers an unforgettable middle grade debut in this bone-chilling tale of an unsettling, unbreakable friendship.
“All the questions we ask as kids about who we are and what we’re worth take a terrifying turn in this spooky tale of a sinister, inhuman imposter and the nightmares he brings. Tremblay has taken the world of horror for adults by storm, and in his middle-grade debut, once again, he serves up scenes that will make you squirm long after the book is closed.”
—M.T. Anderson, National Book Award Winner
When Casey Wilson’s parents tell him that his friend is coming for a sleepover, he has no idea who that might be. Ever since the Zoom Incident, everyone treats him like a pariah, and his tics are worse than ever.
When Morel appears, he’s not like any friend Casey has ever met. His skin is like clay, and he doesn’t speak. But Casey’s parents are charmed by the strange kid, and it’s nice to have someone to talk to besides his sister, Ally, who is away at college. As his normally loving parents grow distant from Casey, they gush and fawn over Morel. Casey knows something is wrong—but with no end in sight to the sleepover, he’s exhausted. And in the dark, out of the corner of his eye, Morel doesn’t look like a kid at all. . . .

"Another brings the creepy, crawly, sinking-into-quicksand vibes with this terror-fed kids’ tale of loss-of-self, isolation, and strange friendship. Paul Tremblay has mastered horror for adults but proves here that he's more than capable of speaking to the horrors unique to middle-grade kids." — Chuck Wendig, author of Monster Movie! and New York Times bestseller Dust & Grim
“A genuinely frightening and powerfully emotional read. Another cements Paul Tremblay as the reigning King of horror while he deftly terrifies and unsettles a new generation of horror fans. Young readers will need to sleep with the lights on after encountering this eerie gem.” — Eric LaRocca, author of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke
“Paul Tremblay has written a novel that's ostensibly for younger readers and it's creepy AF. Some will have nightmares, some will put it down, and some will become horror fans for life. I loved this so much. Adult horror fans will be just as unsettled as their kids!” — Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author of Road of Bones
"New York Times bestselling author Paul Tremblay has solidified himself a master storyteller in the horror genre over the years. With Another, Tremblay has also proven to be capable of weaving tales that captivate readers across generations." — Capes & Tights
