Their unease only grows when Aunt Gladys disappears for long stretches of time, leaving them alone to explore the strange house. · David Neilsen is the author of Dr. Fell and the Playground of Doom.

BEYOND THE DOORS by David Neilsen, Crown Books for Young Readers, Aug. 1, , Hardcover, $ (ages ) Last year, I had the opportunity to interview David Neilsen about the release of his debut novel, Dr. Fell and the Playground of Doom.
