"The night is totally black, now, except for the guardian light of the street lamps. No one is out besides me. I fold my arms, missing my army jacket's warmth, and head home quickly. It's dangerous to be out at night. But I don't run. If you run in Rimwick, something chases you." There are two rules in the small town of Rimwick: 1. Don't be different. 2. Don't go outside after dark. Riley Fey broke both the rules. And breaking rules in Rimwick doesn't mean you get grounded; it means you might end up dead. Dead is not a situation Riley wants to be in, even though everyone at school hates her, her dad is MIA, and her mother is the town witch. But when a wolf shows up at Riley's door and takes her to a dangerous land outside her town, "dead" begins to seem a whole lot more likely. #6 in Fantasy A Wattpad Feature Novel Promoted by Goosebumps movie Winner of the HQ Wattys Award Nominated for The People's Choice Award

Philippines: year 2300 Ang panahon kung saan ang Pilipinas ay nahahati sa tatlong paksyon na tila caste system na pamumuhay; una, ang mga bid (ang pinaka mababang uri ng pamumuhay o ang pinakamahirap). Pangalawa, ang mga commoner (middle class napamumuhay). At ang huli ang pinakamataas na antas ng pamumuhay, ang mga bidders. Kung bakit bidders? Sila ang may kakayahan para bumili ng mga bid o kahit na commoner para mailipat ang kanilang memory gene sa ibang katawan at masabing imortal sila. Ang memory gene na ito ay inimbento ng kompanyang MEMO© na hawak ng kasalukuyang diplomatic government. Isang eksperimontong pumasa sa Europe at patuloy na ginagamit ng mga bidders upang mabuhay sa kahit gaano pa kahabang siglo.
