The Monster's Hour

The monster appears after midnight. As always.

But that's not the monster Connor expected. He anticipates the monster from his nightmares, the one that has come almost every night since his mother began her treatment. The monster with the darkness and the wind and the screams. This monster is something different though. Something ancient, something wild.

And he wants the most dangerous thing possible from Connor. He wants the truth.

Patrick Ness създава историята по идея на Шавон Доуд, чиято преждевременна смърт от рак, не й дава възможност сама да я напише. "Часът на чудовището" е изключителен роман за загубата и как да продължим след нея.
