Preview: Hear it

In the second installment of the popular series, Heck, Dale E. Basye takes Milton and Marlo Fauster on a journey that is as clever, as laughoutloud funny, and as satisfying as the first. Welcome to Rapacia, where the greedy kids go . . . When Milton escapes from Heck in a soul balloon made of old clothes, Marlo is the only Fauster child left to take the blame. Bea Elsa Bubb, the Principal of Darkness, sends her straight to Rapacia, the circle where greedy kids are tormented by glimpses of a justoutofreach, glittering shoppers paradise called Mallvana. Marlo soon falls under the sway of Rapacias assistant principal, a grinning metal rabbit known as the Grabbit that seems to have plans of its own. Meanwhile, back on the Surface, Milton has his own problems. He is determined to get in touch with Marlo and help her find a way out of Heck. But its hard to concentrate when his body and soul dont seem to hold together the way they used to. Will Milton ever reach Marlo? And if he does, will they both end up as pawns in the Grabbits mysterious game? From the Hardcover edition.
