|title=The Fury: The Director's Cut
|rating=5
|genre=Teens
|summary=I chose The Fury expecting a zombie novel. It isn't what I was expecting at all. The official press release describes the Fury as ''a zombie book without zombies''. This book has several things in common with the zombie genre; a group of survivors, in this case all children struggling to survive against a world that wants to destroy them. Unlike the typical zombie book, those affected by the fury are not the mindless living dead. They are ordinary people who go about ordinary lives with one exception. When they get near one of these children they are gripped by an uncontrollable urge to rip them apart, and everyone on the planet, other than a very small group is affected. Parents murder their children, other children will kill their best friends and total strangers will give up everything to destroy them. After they have killed them, they will go back to their ordinary lives. The world will continue unchanged - at least for now. What makes these children different? Why does the whole world want them dead? Who is infected - and with what?

|summary=An empty house in the remote fenlands of England, with a man returning to it alone… a lawyer sorting out an inheritance… something buried yet still yielding power… [[:Category:Susan Hill|Susan Hill]]'s name, and the subtitle 'a ghost story' on the cover… We do seem to be in the territory of [[The Woman in Black by Susan Hill|The Woman in Black]], but worry not – this new short genre novel is a very different beast.
