Barnaby Grimes: Curse of the Night Wolf by Chris Riddell
Barnaby Grimes is a tick-tock lad, running errands in his city, day and night, and 'high-stacking' around the rooftops in search of new mysteries to solve. Is there a link between the tonic and the huge dogs - or possibly wolves - that are roaming the city at night?
Chris Riddell's spindly spidery illustrations. . capture perfectly the eccentric ebullient nature of the book . . . Quite graphic in its violence, this one will be relished by boys of nine and up -- Philip Womack * Literary Review *
It is a page-turning adventure, written with gusto and inventiveness * The Sunday Times *
Thrilling and often downright frightening * Through the Looking Glass *
The spine felt a definite tingle, but the stomach never lurched . . . the writing is superb. It delivers a period feel without ever descending into pastiche. Highly recommended * thebookbag.co.uk *
Don't miss this Dickensian thriller! * Kraze Club *
