Pip lives in a medieval abbey, surrounded by monks and miles of swamp — pretty boring. Until he meets Perfect, a small stone gargoyle, and the two find themselves in the middle of an assassination attempt against the king, and being chased across the fens by a man bent on killing them. Boring? Not any more.
Jan’s Review
This is a wonderfully written middle grade novel that shares a view for those who never been to England a bit of a what is different from the every day. We learn about monks, cathedrals and how to punt down a river while being chased. Add in a magical gargoyle named perfect and you have a short sweet read sure to delight. The adventure continues in Fen Gold (Wickit Chronicles #2)
