Looking for books that feature a wasteland/weird/otherwise hostile or alien area in it, a la Area X in Annihilation or the Shadow Fold in Shadow and Bone. An area where weird stuff goes on or weird creatures live.
Other examples might be One Dark Window with the mist, and the mist in Stephen King’s The Mist.
Genre doesn’t really matter to me, but I assume most the books featuring something like this will be scifi/horror/fantasy which I like all of. YA is also fine.
Thanks!
