UNDEAD ED AND THE DEVIL’S FINGERS

Book ID/图书代码： 04300011B44907

English Summary/英文概要： Forget everything you’ve ever seen or heard about werewolves, zombies and vampires because Ed Bagley’s going to tell you the single most important fact you’ll ever learn: BEING UNDEAD SUCKS ... especially if you’re a kid.

Despite Ed’s death, he’s finding it really hard to actually ... pass on. Mainly because he’s been cursed by an evil clown who made a sick pact with the devil, a pact that has lumbered him with four of Satan’s fingers. And now he’s killed Evil Clive - the head of Mortlake’s dead community, and none of his undead friends can ever forgive him.

Ed has no choice but to return these fingers to the devil himself. Then maybe he can get on with the rest of his death in peace ...

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 艾德終於死了，但問題是他的靈魂無法安息。原因是他被一個與惡魔交易的邪惡小丑詛咒。要他託管撒旦的四根手指，由此，他殺了惡魔克萊夫，成為了Mortlake死亡社區的領袖，他那麼半死不死的朋友們不會原諒他。

艾德沒有辦法，只能親自送回惡魔的手指，也許，這樣它能安寧地去死了，那是真的嗎？(Celia)

In the past this imprint was best known for its teen fare. A slow and steady increase in their middle grade offerings, however, has turned it into the kind of place I can report upon. Undead Ed by Rotterly Ghoulstone (how awesome would it be if that was his real name?), illustrated by Nigel Baines is going to be the kind of thing you hand to the Zombiekins fans of the world. It’s middle grade zombie fare, which means horror + comedy. A lot more horror in a way since our hero is a zombie himself. Now middle grade books that involve zombiefication can do it one of several ways. The best known book where the protagonist is undead at this point in time may be David Lubar’s Accidental Zombie books. Yet even those books only turn the hero into half of a zombie. In Undead Ed a kid named Ed is pursued by his own dismembered arm. And as all 1950s bad movies have taught us, murderous hands = a good time. This book also includes a skeleton named Clive. I feel that’s worth noting.
