Here Be Monsters!
by Alan Snow
"Skulduggery is afoot!
Welcome to
Ratbridge. But beware -- for there is skulduggery afoot. Young Arthur
has fallen foul of the appalling outlaw, Snatcher, and is trapped alone
in the town with every way home sealed. Meanwhile Snatcher and his men
are working tirelessly in secret on a fiendish and dastardly plan to
take over -- and destroy -- the entire town. With the help of Willbury
Nibble, QC; some friendly boxtrolls and cabbageheads; Marjorie the
frustrated inventor; and the rats and pirates from the Ratbridge
Nautical Laundry, can Arthur thwart Snatcher's evil plans -- and find
his way home?"
