The Dark is Rising (Vintage Childrens Classics)

Enter the young adult world of Susan Cooper. Perfect for fans of His Dark Materials.

It's Christmas-time in the Stanton family house: presents, carol singing, good cheer. But for eleven-year-old Will Stanton, something sinister has begun, inching round his subconscious, shouting silent warnings he can't decipher. Then on Midwinter Day, Will wakes up to a different world: silent, covered in snow and ancient forest, a world of another time. A world where evil lurks.

Because Will is not the ordinary boy he always thought he was. He is the last of the Old Ones and the power to vanquish the evil magic of the Dark lies within him.

Includes exclusive material: In the Backstory you can read an interview with the author and discover the ancient beliefs that inspired the story.

现在是斯坦顿家的圣诞节:礼物，颂歌，欢乐。但对11岁的威尔·斯坦顿(Will Stanton)来说，一些邪恶的事情已经开始，在他的潜意识里缓慢移动，无声地发出他无法理解的警告。然后在隆冬的一天，威尔会醒来，看到一个不同的世界:寂静的，覆盖着雪和古老的森林，另一个时代的世界。一个邪恶潜伏的世界。

因为威尔不是他一直认为的那种普通男孩。他是最后一个老巫师，他拥有征服黑暗邪恶魔法的力量。
