Groogleman

"Groogleman" is a young adult science fiction novel written by Debra Doyle and James D. Macdonald and published by Harcourt in 1996 [ [http://www.amazon.com/dp/0152002359 Amazon.com: Groogleman: Debra Doyle, James D. MacDonald: Books ] ] . Set in a post-apocalyptic future, it is the story of 13-year-old Dan Henchard, who shows signs of an immunity to the deadly plague which threatens his village. Feeling that he may be destined to be a healer, he travels with his friend Leezie to "The Dead Lands," a plague-ravaged area, where they must face not only the plague, but the fearsome grooglemen, strange creatures who steal the heads of the plauge victims. "Groogleman" was expanded from the short story, "Uncle Joshua and the Grooglemen"," written by the same authors, which was first published in the 1993 anthology "Bruce Coville's Book of Monsters" [ [http://www.sff.net/people/doylemacdonald/groohead.htm Groogleman ] ] .
