The Howling, Gary Brandner's 1977 novel, sets a woman recovering from trauma against a small California town that turns out to be sheltering a colony of werewolves. Brandner wrote two further novels under the same title banner, The Howling II and The Howling III, but by the author's own account they're only loosely connected sequels rather than a continuous story, and neither maps onto the better-known film series the first book inspired.

The Graveyard Book follows Nobody "Bod" Owens, a toddler who escapes the murder of his family and is raised among the ghosts of an old English graveyard, absorbing their otherworldly customs while a threat from his past waits beyond the gates. Neil Gaiman's 2008 novel won both the Newbery and Carnegie Medals, and illustrator P. Craig Russell later adapted it into a two-volume graphic novel. Bod's story spans the original novel and that graphic-novel retelling rather than continuing in a prose sequel.
