Dark Man is a hugely successful series for teens and young adults with very low reading levels. The gritty and mysterious books grip readers even though the text is limited. The sinister atmosphere and strong black-and-white illustrations entice even the most reluctant of teen readers.

The dark tales have a 'grown-up' style which doesn't patronise the reader. The story text is short and simple but not patronizing. Stories are gritty, full of tension and mystery. The language is terse. The Dark Man is a serious comic Hero with his own methodology. Each book is a self-contained story, but each story is a part of a greater whole. Although each novel reveals a little more about Dark Man, the books can be read in any order: no one story depends on having read another first.

Set Two is at the same low level of readers as Set One. The six stories range from 220-420 words. The books can be read in any order, but across series the text offers some reading progression. This pack contains the second six books in the series:

The Dark Dreams of Hell
