I had never heard of this series before I saw it on NetGalley, but I was on a graphic novel hype so I thought I'd pick it up and give it a go. I adored it! This book is such a fun and interesting read, yet it's light enough that you can get lost in the story without worrying about anything else. Before I knew it, I was at the end of the boook and I was dying to read the next one!

This graphic novel contains four individual issues of the comic, which is narrated by a goblin called Butterworth. The artwork is fantastic, and really brought the story itself to life. This would be a great book for older children who are looking for something creepy to read, but I also think anyone would enjoy it! I definitely did.

I'll definitely be trying to get my hands on the next books in this series, because I love fast, easy reads.
