Black Hole Cinema Club
Publisher: Nosy Crow
For Lucas and his friends, it starts with a cinema trip like any other: an all-day movie marathon at the Black Hole Cinema Club. Being a 4Di showing, they are expecting an immersive, cutting-edge event that will give them a full sensory experience, but none of them could have imagined what would happen once the lights went out.
First, there is the curious, cryptic message scrolling across the screen but almost immediately, it seems as if the Cinema Club might actually be trying to kill them. As they play out the final scene of movie after movie, with death always just seconds away, the friends begin to wonder how long it will be before their luck runs out and whether they can survive.
Be prepared for a reading experience unlike any other. From a stunningly original beginning, this adrenaline-fuelled sci-fi adventure will have readers on the edge of their seats right to the last page.
With almost unbearable tension, and an unexpected ending that may well blow your socks off, this is ideal for fans of film and/or science fiction. But it may leave your nerves in shreds.
