Official synopsis Publisher
From the middle of nowhere… to somewhere else.
Nothing happens here. Until Now.
After stepping through a door into a strange alternate world and returning to the real world changed, six high schoolers from disparate backgrounds are forced to work together to stop a monster from consuming their souls – and possibly the world.
A potent blend of The Chronicles of Narnia and Stranger Things with a modern dose of the teen mutant angst of Chris Claremont’s New Mutants and the sharp teen commentary of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, THE DARKNESS WE BROUGHT BACK is a YA fantasy adventure steeped in modern teenage life with a backdrop evoking the mythical worlds and adventures we all grew up loving.
Change isn’t always for the better.
