The Dark Mystery of the Shadow Beasts

On planet Dulunae, a unique group of teenagers manage to escape from the ruthless dictator, CH'NOPS, and his brutal army of Antibodies. Together, Gyro, Marina, Lynai'seth and Jax form a group called The Outcasts and scout for safety from the Antibodies. Coming from different cultures and customs, each of The Outcasts faces the challenge of overcoming and understanding these differences as they struggle to survive the barbaric conditions into which they are thrown. The Outcasts also set out to search for the place that promises freedom and peace – a place called HayVen. On their journey, they discover even greater dangers and encounter the monstrous creature and killer – Shadow Beast.

Author Gregory Janicke has also created special drawings of the Shadow Beasts characters for the series which are included in the books. Each book in the Shadow Beasts Series offers "Questions for Discussion." These questions are specially designed to stimulate conversation among readers about cultural similarities and differences, the importance of taking responsibility, the value of science and many other interesting topics.
