** ''Literature/{{Railhead}}'' is mostly LighterAndSofter but not without its moments -- the BigBad of the first book is suddenly ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice by a [[MixAndMatchCritters sky-ray]] and bleeds out with a gaping wound in his chest, but the worst comes in the finale, ''Station Zero'', where [[RebelliousPrincess Threnody Noon]], one of the main protagonists no less, [[MurderInTheFamily stabs her own sister with a knife]] and allows her to be '''''EatenAlive''''' by [[LizardFolk Kraitt warriors]]. Even ''Threnody herself'' is disturbed with what she did.

* ''Literature/MortalEngines'', SO MUCH. About a hundred named characters die over the course of the four books, and millions more in the background. Apart from several dozen shootings and stabbings, characters are also crushed underneath mobile cities, ripped apart by robotic birds, incinerated in burning airships... Basically, death tends to be extremely brutal, but mostly very quick. ''One poor ''mook'' got his head bashed in with a typewriter. By one of the [[DarkActionGirl protagonists.]]''.

* ''Literature/{{Mermaids|2001}}'': It's downplayed as it occurred off-page in the backstory and it's not described in detail, but the part where a mermaid [[WouldHurtAChild poisoned]] [[DeathOfAChild a sick baby]] to frame Morva out of romantic jealousy is pretty dark for a children’s book, and definitely one of the darkest things in the trilogy.
