Отрывок из книги
JULIE KAGAWA was born in Sacramento, California. But nothing exciting really happened to her there. So, at the age of nine she and her family moved to Hawaii, which she soon discovered was inhabited by large carnivorous insects, colonies of house geckos and frequent hurricanes. She spent much of her time in the ocean, when she wasnât getting chased out of it by reef sharks, jellyfish and the odd eel.
When not swimming for her life, Julie immersed herself in books, often to the chagrin of her school teachers, who would find she hid novels behind her maths textbooks during class. Her love of reading led her to pen some very dark and gruesome stories. The gory tales faded with time, but the passion for writing remained, long after she graduated and was supposed to get a real job.

âWhat are you doing after school?â Robbie asked as we huddled in the far backseat. Around us, students talked, joked, laughed, and generally paid us no attention. âWanna grab a coffee later? Or we could sneak into the theater and see a movie.â
âNot today, Rob,â I replied, trying to wring water from my shirt. Now that it was over, I dearly regretted our little mud battle. I was going to look like the Creature from the Black Lagoon in front of Scott. âYouâll have to do your sneaking without me this time. Iâm tutoring someone after class.â
