Each book features Dark Man, a shadowy, brooding loner who has been recruited to play a part in a secret, cataclysmic struggle between good and evil. The six latest titles delve that bit deeper into the Dark Man mythology, enticing and rewarding readers as they tackle the longer stories of approximately 1000 words. The simple, carefully written texts focus on the 200 key high frequency words, and to assist the reader they are left justified throughout and printed in a clear, legible font on off-white paper (ideal for dyslexic readers). The Dark Man series has won great acclaim (and awards) for its ability to engage older, very reluctant readers who have a reading age as low as 5 to 7 years.
