Draft:Cyber Zone (book series)

Cyber Zone is a series of children's horror Science fiction novellas authored by S.F. Black. The series contained six books which were published by Troll Books in 1997.

However, this series is noteworthy as it focused more on SciFi and digital elements then other rival series like Graveyard School and Deadtime Stories.
