Gallowgate by K. R. Alexander

From bestselling horror master K.R. Alexander, a twisted take on a school for
magic where the line between curse and survival is always shifting.
Sebastian Wight is cursed. As a boy with the forbidden ability to traverse the
lands of the dead, he must not only harness his newfound powers to fight the
monster that stalks him, but also to navigate a creepy world of hunting ghosts and
ghouls with his eccentric classmates.
And that's only the start of his concerns.
There's also the tangled on a boy who barely looks at him twice... and the deadly
family history that brought him to the halls of Gallowgate Academy in the first
place.
For Sebastian Wight, fighting the dead might be hard... but it's dealing with the
living that may bring him down.

K. R. Alexander is the pseudonym for author Alex R. Kahler.
As K. R., he writes creepy middle grade books for brave young readers. As Alex --
his actual first name -- he writes fantasy novels for adults and teens. In both cases,
he loves writing fiction drawn from true life experiences. (But this book can’t be
real . . . can it?)
Alex has traveled the world collecting strange and fascinating tales, from the misty
moors of Scotland to the humid jungles of Hawaii. He is always on the move, as he
believes there is much more to life than what meets the eye.
You can learn more about his travels and other books, including The Collector, The
Fear Zone, and the Scare Me series, on his website: cursedlibrary.com
He looks forward to scaring you again . . . soon.
