Gina Damico

    Autorka se proslavila svými provokativními a pronikavými díly, která se nebojí zkoumat složité lidské vztahy a morální dilemata. Její styl je charakteristický svou bohatou obrazností a precizním jazykem, který vtahuje čtenáře do hlubin lidské psychiky. Díla autorky často odhalují skryté pravdy o společnosti a jednotlivcích, nutíce nás přemýšlet o vlastních hodnotách a přesvědčeních. Její literární přínos spočívá ve schopnosti vidět krásu v běžných věcech a nacházet hluboký význam v každodenních situacích.

      A devil is a bad influence . . . There was a time when geeky, squeaky-clean Max Kilgore would never lie or steal or even think about murder. Then he accidentally unearths a devil, and Max’s choices are no longer his own. The big red guy has a penchant for couch surfing and junk food—and you should never underestimate evil on a sugar high. With the help of Lore, a former goth girl who knows a thing or two about the dark side, Max is races against the clock to get rid of the houseguest from hell before time, and all the Flamin’ Hot Cheetos this side of the fiery abyss, run out. Gina Damico, author of the Croak series, once again delivers all the horror, hilarity, and high-stakes drama that any kid in high school or hell could ever handle.
