If you liked Daniel in "Something  Strange and Deadly" you will adore him in the novella, "A Dawn Most Wicked".  This is the story of how Daniel came to meet Jie and Joseph and how they came together to be partners in the Spirit Hunters. Daniel has left his horrible past behind him and is working on a boat as a sort of engineer.  He is also in love with the captain's daughter, a beautiful pilot in her own right, Cass.  He years to make himself better and confess his love for her.  He hopes to keep the ship afloat by winning a race against a competing boat.  Their boat the "Sadie Queen" has been down on hard times since a bunch of ghosts have taken to haunting it.This isn't a must read however I really enjoyed seeing more of Daniel and this novella gave great insight into where Daniel was coming from when he told Eleanor that he didn't love her at the end of "Something Strange and Deadly".  This was a fully fleshed out and entertaining story in its own right and I thought it was very well written.  I am now jumping straight into the second full length installment, "A Darkness Strange and Lovely".  I am very pleased I finally discovered this YA series.
