Praise For Monster Books   What the kids at the Wishing Shelf Book Awards Say The readers thought this book was excellent. They liked the opening paragraph very much (particularly the boy readers) and they thought the plot was fun and exciting. One reader put, ‘This story is very funny. I liked Venn the most.’ All of the young readers loved the ‘completely evil iron knights’ and the way the boys had to stop them from destroying the village of Four Frogs. One reader (teacher) put, ‘What I liked most about this story was how well the author understood boys’ mentality. Everything they did in the story, even the way they spoke and what they spoke about perfectly showed off the attitude of young lads.   'Aimed at the young adult market, the world building is incredible and it's almost impossible not to become immersed in this fantastically realised world of charm and grandeur.' - SF Book Review   ‘A complete world in a slim volume, packed with original characters and brilliant, funny rhymes – some great poetry even.’ - BBC Belfast   'This is a stunning story: fast moving, fiercely realistic yet engaging with ghosts and an angel. It's alive with native wit and, underpinned by the conflict of courage and cowardice, loyalty and bullying, it's genuinely moving. Very many school groups visit the battlefields of WWI, and Angel of Mons (with its excellent notes at the end) should be essential reading for them all.' - Kevin Crossley-Holland, Author and President of the School Library Association
