Publisher's summary

Bloomsbury presents Stay in the Light by A.M. Shine, read by Jacqueline Milne.

From critically acclaimed Irish horror writer A.M. Shine, the sequel to The Watchers, now adapted into a major motion picture produced by M. Night Shyamalan.

YOU MAY HAVE ESCAPED... BUT YOU'LL NEVER BE FREE.

After her terrifying experience at the hands of the Watchers, Mina has escaped to a cottage on the west coast of Ireland. She obsessively researches her former captors, desperate to find any way to prolong the safety of humankind.

When Mina encounters a stranger near her home, she fears the worst – for she knows the figure is not what it seems. Soon, people she has encountered start to disappear.

Mina knows the Watchers' power is growing. She flees for her life, but when she reports her fears she finds her sanity questioned. Can she convince people that the Watchers are real, and ready to strike – or will she suffer the fate she has dreaded since she first encountered those malevolent beings?

A chilling modern twist on the Gothic horror novel, perfect for fans of Kealan Patrick Burke, T. Kingfisher and classic horror.

Love this series

I really enjoyed the first one and the sequel did not disappoint. It started a little slow but it was definitely the build up in creating the next chapter of this tale. I’m so excited for the next one. Great story and very well written.

Incredible Sequel—If You Loved the 1st one, You’ll love this!

This is one incredible sequel and it has stayed with me since the second I finished it…. 🫣 Please, Mr. Shine, write a third book!!! I’m begging you!

There’s one review that says “Where is the Horror” or something like it; while I can understand where that thought is coming from, I think there’s plenty of scary moments/themes to warrant the HORROR GENRE. In my opinion, the first book is more of a horror novel, but this one just blasts you in the gut with insanity from the changelings, referred mainly as The Watchers in the first book obviously.

In my review of the first book, I mention that, if you want a better story about the si, sidhè, fae, fairies, changelings, or whatever you want to call them, Peadar Òguilin’s duology (THE CALL and THE INVASION) is a lot better; It’s more terrifying and, when comparing the stories of first book and Peadar’s duology, it does have a much wider scope. All of that being said, AM Shine took this new story and broke the single locale of the first book and made the entire country of Ireland a huge part of the book. Although I can see this book having the biggest cliffhanger in the history of cliffhangers, I think Shine would do well to keep this story going. I REALLY want to see this story continue—I want to say a word to describe a part of the book, but it would give away too much, so I won’t.

Honestly, if you enjoyed THE WATCHERS, you will love STAY IN THE LIGHT. It’s different, but it is not even close to a betrayal of the original, which happens all the time with sequels. I give the overall story an A- and the narrator definitely deserves an A for her performance in both books! She is such an amazing talent!

Spooky Ear Candy

Suspenseful and scary for anyone with a healthy fear of the fae. Prose in Irish is so beautiful. Scary believable.
