Description
There’s a monster in Alex’s backyard. He doesn’t know how it got there, but with his parents refusing to help, Alex must capture it on his own. When he does, a monster hunting Keeper comes to claim it. Alex follows the Keeper to the world of Edin, a preserve for monsters run by magic-wielders.
Aboard the Keeper’s airship, and with his giant socket wrench-wielding monster companion, Alex must learn the art of magic if he hopes to stay in this wondrous world. But as he trains with the other children in the fortress of Babili, rumors begin that the Heretic Pharaoh has returned, and Alex’s new home is in danger.

Monsters, magic, and a whole lot more.... fills this book with a rip roaring adventure sure to keep your kids happy from cover to cover!! I thoroughly loved this story. Alex was a great character (reminded me of what my son and daughter would do) and his companions will win a spot in your heart for sure with their dynamite antics. From the capture of the monster to the air ship ride as well as the whole world of Edin, I was blown away by the lush details and the well developed story line. Besides all the magical goodness, the villain of the tale is satisfying and believable with enough scary to make him bad, but not too much to give younger or more sensitive kids nightmares. One of the best I've read in awhile!!
