The secret hour when time freezes arrives every night at
midnight in Bixby, Oklahoma. It's a dangerous time, when
five teenagers are the only humans awake and dark creatures
crawl out of the shadows, but at least the midnight hour is
regular and predictable. Until suddenly, the blue time comes
. . . in the middle of the day. The noise of school stops.
Cheerleaders are frozen in midair, teachers brought to a
standstill. Everything is the haunted blue color of the
midnight hour.
The Midnighters can't understand what's happening, but as
they scramble for answers, they discover that the walls
between the secret hour and real time are crumbling. Soon
the dark creatures will have a chance to feed after
centuries of waiting, unless these five teenagers can find a
way to stop them.
A desperate race against time, a mind-blowing mystery of
paranormal logic, a tale of ancient evil and spine-chilling
sacrifice: blue noon is the exhilarating third volume in the
Midnighters series by acclaimed author Scott Westerfeld.
