The Blackwood Chronicles

Separated from the rest of the world and shrouded in mystery, the small village of Blackwood lives in constant fear of the dark forest that surrounds them. As soon as the sun sets and shadows start to gather over the houses, shrieks and howls can be heard from within the trees. Nobody is quite sure what or who lives within Blackwood Forest, but what is known is that all manner of evil resides inside. Because of this, the adults in the village stay as far away from there as possible; however, the youth of Blackwood is far braver. Mare, Maria, and Ester are three young inhabitants of the village who are desperate to find themselves in the stuffy and rigid community they live in. Each decides to brave into the forest and team up with one of the mysterious creatures that lives inside to make their wildest dreams come true. But just because not every monster is evil doesn’t mean that every monster is good. Some are there to bond and protect the children; others are there to create havoc and mayhem. Will the youth of Blackwood survive the creatures of the forest, or will they fall into their clutches? Will they discover their true selves, or will they disappear into the forest forever? The answers lay waiting to be discovered inside of Blackwood Forest.
