Description
In
a fantastical 1860s England, every quiet little township is terrorized
by a ferocious monster -- much to the townsfolk’s delight! Each town’s
unique monster is a source of local pride, not to mention tourism.
Each
town, that is... except for one. Unfortunately for the people of
Stoker-on-Avon, their monster isn’t quite as impressive. In fact, he’s a
little down in the dumps. Can the morose Rayburn get a monstrous
makeover and become a proper horror? It’s up to the eccentric Dr.
Charles Wilkie and plucky street urchin Timothy to get him up to snuff,
before a greater threat turns the whole town to kindling.
Monsters
of all ages are sure to enjoy this tale about life’s challenges, the
power of friendship, and creative redemption, packed with epic battles
and plenty of wild beasts!

My thoughts: I have been on a graphic novel kick for awhile and this one caught my attention immediately. This was a funny witty graphic novel. It was a great story with a really good message. Art was awesome. I loved Monster on the Hill. I would recommend this to anyone. It is even a good one to read to small children. But the story was funny enough to keep an adult's attention as well. Highly recommend this one.
My Rating: 5 out of 5
This is available for pre-order now and will be released in July.
I read this free of charge via NetGallery but all opinions are my own.
