The Last Gargoyle

The Last Gargoyle | Paul Durham

3 posts | 2 read | 1 to read

Fans of Jonathan Auxier's The Night Gardener and Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book will tremble with delight for this haunting tale about a lonely gargoyle who isn't alone at all. Penhallow is the last of his kind. The stone gargoyle--he'd prefer you call him a grotesque--fearlessly protects his Boston building from the spirits who haunt the night. But even he is outmatched when Hetty, his newest ward, nearly falls victim to the Boneless King, the ruler of the underworld. Then there's Viola, the mysterious girl who keeps turning up at the most unlikely times. In a world where nightmares come to life, Viola could be just the ally Penhallow needs. But can he trust her when every shadow hides another secret? Can he afford not to?

Loved this creepy middle grade a bit too much. Great for fans of THE NIGHT GARDENER.

Whatever you do, don‘t call this gargoyle Goyle—he hates it, & will tell you it‘s not his name,& furthermore, he‘s not a gargoyle, he‘s a Grotesque. Penhallow is a guardian tasked w/protecting his domain, & his wards within it, from undead Nethergkin. Everything is great until a new family moves in & trouble begins. Full of wit & humor & just enough creepiness, I‘d say this book is perfect for young readers not quite ready for The Graveyard Book.

New books into the library today which means its time to preview some books. Tonight‘s read is a MG I‘ve heard good things about. (And I do happen to be a huge fan of Gaiman‘s The Graveyard Book so it sure sounds as if I‘ll like it. Can‘t wait to find out!)
