When Toby Magill, now a veteran of Killer Pizza’s underground Monster Hunting Organization, makes the chilling discovery that vampires have invaded the small town of Raven's Run, he and his fellow Monster Combat Officers, Annabel and Strobe, have no time to lose. They must defeat the undead creatures before their numbers spread. But in this action packed third Killer Pizza adventure, the KP teens find themselves up against a supernatural enemy far more dangerous than any they have faced so far.
The challenges - including a midnight battle in an unearthly cemetery, a creepy, abandoned mansion and a beautiful but very lethal young vampire - are many. Can the MCOs prevail? Or will their perilous mission prove to be their last? Anything is possible in the deadly monster universe of Killer Pizza!
Praise for Killer Pizza, the first book in the Killer Pizza series:
“A monster is roaming the nights in Hidden Hills, Ohio. But why worry about monsters when you can sink your teeth into a Killer Pizza? Greg Taylor serves up a hot slice of horror I couldn’t put down!”
– R.L. Stine, bestselling author of the Goosebump and Fear Street series
“This much-needed book definitely fills a gap in horror stories for young readers left behind by the end of the Goosebump series.”
– VOYA
"[Killer Pizza] is one of those great stories about an ordinary kid like you and me who suddenly finds himself transformed into an action hero. There are bullies, monsters, secret crushers, overprotective parents, high-tech weapons and, oh yeah, plenty of pizza!"
– KIDZWORLD
"... a romp of youthful horror exuberance, Killer Pizza introduces Greg Taylor as a new voice in YA creepshows."
– The Strand Bookstore, New York City, "18 Miles of Books"
“A delectable choice for horror fans as well as reluctant readers.”
– School Library Journal
To date, Killer Pizza has been selected for eight young reader state library lists, including the Texas Lone Star List, the Vermont Dorothy Canfield Fisher Award Master List (2nd in the statewide student vote), the California Readers Middle School Collection and the Florida Young Readers Award Master List.
A Killer Pizza film is currently in development by Chris Columbus' (Harry Potter, The Goonies, Gremlins, Percy Jackson) 1492 Productions.
