The Spook's Apprentice: Book 1
A great novel for pre-teens (maybe Year 6) onwards.
We borrowed this from the local library and after my son read it, I read it too. I'm now on the fifth book in the Spooks series and I'm personally loving it! :D
Not for very young or sensitive readers - the content is supernatural, scary and at times quite gory, but if that doesn't put you off, the books are really well written and totally compelling. Set in a time of witches and boggarts, ghosts and monsters, all ultimately tends to end well and I can't wait to see how Joseph Delany ties the series up eventually.
Great for hardier kids 10+ onwards who don't mind a little scare and like the supernatural (and their Parents :)).
