About the Books
The Spook's Destiny sends Tom to Ireland to face evil mages, armed with the dangerous Destiny Blade.

The Spook's Blood raises the stakes as Tom confronts a monstrous vampire god, discovering that defeating the Fiend may demand a terrible sacrifice. Spook's: Slither's Tale introduces a blood-drinking creature forced into an uneasy alliance with a farmer's daughter, their path crossing Grimalkin's.
