Strange Matter

"For the physics concept, see Strange matter."

Strange Matter is a children's book series created by Marty M. Engle and Johnny Ray Barnes Jr. The series takes place in the fictional town of Fairfield. It centers on children attending Fairfield Middle School who encounter paranormal situations. Each book in the series features a new protagonist and a new situation. Some situations or characters are used more that once, but either way, it's a new situation. It started in 1995 and then was discontinued in 1997.

The books were also featured on cassette tape, within which each character was voiced by separate actors, it featured sound effects, and erie music.

Other Works

This series also spawned a 4 part mini-series called Strange forces. It was like the others in the series, except that it involved some of the main protagonists from the first 10 books published in the Strange Matter series. It also had its own storyline that was away from the rest and was connected in every book, unlike the Strange Matter series where new characters were introduced and new situations were involved each book (save for three). For more information on this series, look at Strange forces.
