Blurb:
Christmas is a time of peace and good dreams, but for Nick it would soon become a nightmare. When he starts skipping classes to hang with the bullies at school, strange things begin to happen.
A horrifying apparition haunts his dreams and tears his Christmas stocking into shreds! Finally, the beast crashes through Nick’s bedroom window, throws him in a sack, and spirits him away to its lair.
Nick finds himself in a world of perpetual twilight where he will have to find his way home before becoming trapped forever, or worse. THE KRAMPUS is hungry, and the oven awaits a fresh meat pie!

My review: It’s the
holiday season and Nick was being anything but nice with him skipping class to
hang with the school bullies. Upon getting caught by the teachers, Nick spots a
stranger in a mask. Were they being watched?
Having to
deal with his angry parents only made his day worse…until he sees the face in
the flame…and hears noises in the chimney? Could it be Santa? This was no
Santa. It was a monster!
From that
point on, Nick was in a frenzy.
He sees you when you’re sleeping. He knows
when you’re awake. He knows if you’ve been bad or good, so be good for goodness
sake! (Creepy song, by the way.)
It would
seem Nick was having a hard time being good this year. The whole time he was
getting punished for something.
A nice, easy
read.
My rating: 3 stars
