The Fang of Bonfire Crossing by McLelland and Sylvester - OPTIONAL


Language: G (0 swears, 0 “f”); Mature Content: PG (magical realism with zombies); Violence: PG (lots of fighting zombies)

BUYING ADVISORY: MS - OPTIONAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: LOW

The Lost Causes are still on the run and the road for justice for their families.  Even though they defeated Bad Whiskey Nelson, their ultimate foe, Reverend Rose, has plenty of other minions to thwart their mission to find Bonfire Crossing, the Char Stone, and the Fang. They meet Edgar Doyle, who is helpful, but seems to have ulterior motives.

Westerns are not a big seller at my school.  There used to be an audience for Louis L-Amour, but even that has dried up.  You might find a few kids who will like the dangers and the zombies, but you will have to hand sell this patron by patron.
