New YA fiction

All Graphic Novels today!


Monster on the Hill by Rob Harrell -- 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.

And in the heart of conflict stands a boy named Loki.








Green Lantern. New Guardians.
