Living with each other isn’t easy but Angus and Alex soon learn there is a curse that binds them. What’s worse, it threatens Alex’s family! Working together, Angus and Alex will set out to break the curse . . . without killing each other first . . . hopefully.

Watch the Sky
The signs are everywhere, Jory's stepfather,
Caleb, says.Red leaves in the springtime. Pages torn from a library
book. All the fish in the aquarium facing the same way. A cracked egg
with twin yolks. Everywhere and anywhere. And because of them Jory's
life is far from ordinary. He must follow a very specific set of rules:
don't trust anyone outside the family, have your works at the ready just
in case, and always,always watch out for the signs. The end is coming, and they must be prepared.
School
is Jory's only escape from Caleb's tight grasp, and with the help of
new friends Jory begins to explore a world beyond his family's farm. As
Jory's friendships grow, Caleb notifies Jory's mother and siblings that
the time has come for final preparations.
They
begin an exhausting schedule digging a mysterious tunnel in
anticipation of the disaster. But as the hold gets deeper, so does the
family's doubt about whether Caleb's prophecy is true. When the stark
reality of his stepfather's plans becomes clear, Jory must choose
between living his own life or following Caleb, shutting his eyes to the
bright world he's just begun to see.
