Dating and High School: Hard Enough. Now Add Assassins. Avoiding assassination wasn't on Mel's to-do list for her junior year. Learning she wasn't human hadn't made the list, either.

Not every child who dies goes on to the afterlife. Some are caught halfway between life and death, in a sort of limbo known as Everlost: a shadow of the living world, filled with all the things and places that no longer exist. It’s a magical, yet dangerous place where bands of lost kids run wild and anyone who stands in the same place too long sinks to the center of the Earth. Allie and Nick don't survive the car crash, and end up in Everlost, where coins are more valuable than anyone knows, fortune cookies tell the truth, monsters are real, and the queen of lost souls lives in a once-beloved tower. Nick and Allie have to learn to survive in a world with different rules, and figure out who they can trust--and who they must oppose at all costs. At stake is nothing less than the fate of Everlost and the living world they have left behind. In this gripping trilogy, Neal Shusterman explores questions of life, death, and what just might lie in between.

THE SAGA OF THE SWAMP THING LIVES ON! Dr. Alec Holland was a brilliant scientist who was developing a bio-restorative formula that would rejuvenate plant life. When he died, he was reborn as the Swamp Thing, the avatar of the Green. As champion and protector of all plants on the planet, Swamp Thing has access to untold power. But such power also attracts danger. In this daring new reinterpretation, Swamp Thing is put to the ultimate test when he faces several challenges that push the limits of his abilities. There’s the Rot, the kingdom of death and decay that is hell-bent on destroying all life on Earth. Anton Arcane, his archnemesis, has also returned from the grave yet again. When another contender for the role of avatar of the Green steps forth, the creature who was once Alec Holland is forced to defend the mantle that he has grudgingly learned to accept. And just when you thought that the Green had its hands full with the Red and the Rot, yet another kingdom, the Machines, declares war.
