Garth Nix write fantasy/horror books. They are good reads, but very dark. He has strong characters that prevail despite truly horrific environments.

The Old Kingdom Series

Young Adult and up

In this fantasy/horror series our heroes (and heroines) are fighting death itself. It takes a moment into the first book to acclimate to the world, culture and rules that Garth Nix has created, as the heroine is a necromancer who's job is to put to rest the undead. If you decide to read past the first book, be committed to read the third, because the second leaves you hanging.
