The Iron Golem by Christian Page Review


A short overview:

Dark forces are converging on the sleepy town of Autumn’s Hallow. Monsters in the woods, mad scientists on the loose and sinister minions lurk. Four young friends must band together to uncover a secret plot that threatens them, the town they live in and the people they love. It’s up to Blaine Davis, Daschle Gaunt, Shelley Merry and Drake Harker, heirs to a fantastic collection of powers to stop an evil that threatens to consume the world. Can the Monster Squad thwart the evil Victor von Frankenstein in time? It will take friendship, courage and smarts to find out.

My Review:
I liked that this book had a lot of references to different monsters. I also liked the names and puns. It is great for children and adults alike. I was entertained and am eagerly awaiting the next book. The author did a great job of making a fun and exciting world. There is a great quest and the book is a fast read. The author also did a great job with descriptions. For example on page 199  "the darting reapers began to explode in puffs metallic green, like cheap fireworks lighting the fourth of July.". I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are  my own.
