To most, the monsters that lived under
the bed or in the closet were just a part of their imagination, but for
fourteen year old Amelia, the monsters were very real. Night after night
they would terrorize her from within the shadows of her closet, calling
her Amélie and telling her that their King wished to see her. They
would tell her, gently and calmly, that she was the daughter of a hero,
and that it was time for her to return to her people. Each time, though,
she would turn them away and plead with them to leave her alone. Not
that it mattered. She knew they would be back and that her time to
follow them peacefully would soon come to an end.
It isn’t until
her cousin Lily comes to stay that the monsters finally attack,
returning in the middle of the night and taking Lily from her room and
bringing her back to their world. Forced to face her fears, Amelia must
enter the monsters’ world to rescue her cousin, discovering a tangled
past that connects her to the world beyond her closet and the one they
call Amélie.
AMELIA’S MONSTERS is a 79,000 world young adult fantasy.
***Note:
I have posted this query on this site a long time ago; you can probably
still find the original one still hidden within the depths of this
website. I have started submitting and have received a good amount of
rejections and figure it's because of the above query. I will thank all
of you now for your time and feedback as I won't be able to respond to
your comments and your own queries for I will be away on vacation for a
few days. So once again: thank you!
