Teen horror books have been a request at our library, so when I saw a review for Killer Pizza by Greg Taylor, I ordered it for our library. I happened upon it again recently when I was looking for a book to read on my breaks, so I decided to give it a shot.
Toby McGill is looking for a job to avoid the boredom of nothing to do all summer. The only place that will hire him is a new place called Killer Pizza, but that's perfect for Toby because his secret dream is to become a celebrity chef. However, he gets more than he bargained for when he finds out Killer Pizza is actually a front for a secret monster-hunting organization and he has been hired to do much more than make pizzas...like save his town from a guttata attack.
This book was fun and suspenseful and the short chapters make it a good choice for reluctant readers. There's little gore and the "horror" is pretty tame.
