Items related to Nightfall
The dark will bring your worst nightmares to light in this gripping and eerie survival story, perfect for fans of James Dashner and Neil Gaiman.
On Marin’s island, sunrise doesn’t come every twenty-four hours—it comes every twenty-eight years. Now the sun is just a sliver of light on the horizon. The weather is turning cold and the shadows are growing long.
Because sunset triggers the tide to roll out hundreds of miles, the islanders are frantically preparing to sail south, where they will wait out the long Night.
Marin and her twin brother, Kana, help their anxious parents ready the house for departure. Locks must be taken off doors. Furniture must be arranged. Tables must be set. The rituals are puzzling—bizarre, even—but none of the adults in town will discuss why it has to be done this way.
Just as the ships are about to sail, a teenage boy goes missing—the twins’ friend Line. Marin and Kana are the only ones who know the truth about where Line’s gone, and the only way to rescue him is by doing it themselves. But Night is falling. Their island is changing.
And it may already be too late.

Review:
Darkness falls (and can't get up) in this terrifying YA thriller (MTV News (USA))
Fall's biggest thriller novel (Mashable)
In this exciting horror thriller . . . [the] fast-paced story relies more on psychological suspense than graphic horror as it effectively alternates between Marin's, Kana's, and Line's perspectives and emphasizes self-reliance and the unbreakable bonds between family and friends. (Booklist)
The teens' desperate journey to find their way off the island will keep readers turning pages (Kirkus)
Fans of The Maze Runner series will feel right at home with Nightfall. (Paste Magazine)
[T]he authors masterfully build the suspense (Buffalo News)
Nightfall by Jake Halpern and Peter Kujawinski is a dark story for after 14 years of day there come 14 years of night on Marin's Island. As the sun sets the temperature drops, the shadows grow and darkness rises, what will the long night bring? (Armadillo Magazine)
I really enjoyed this atmospheric, creepy, heart-stopping standalone. Great characters, great mystery; it's the perfect creepy read for the Halloween season! (Elle.Biblio (Australia))
