Wizard is proud to introduce a collection of classic poetry and prose extracts based around the intriguing themes of horror, haunting and the macabre, with an introduction by prize-winning children?s author Kevin Crossley-Holland.

An attractive blend of the familiar and the novel, Fear and Trembling will feature a mixture of well-known and much-loved texts, and less familiar but equally eerie tales from the past. Including darker versions of traditional tales, and material from Frankenstein, Dracula, Beowulf, and Sir Gawain, the anthology will appeal to teachers and parents who will approve of the classic content, as well as to teenagers. It is published at the same time as Love and Longing, a collection of classic extracts on romance, relationships and love.

All royalties from these books will go to a children?s charity. Further details of the chosen charity will be available shortly.
