![]() It takes a little while to get things going and to introduce all of characters. It might just be a first book in the series kind of thing, and I hope Gilman’s writing improves in the second book of the series, The Slither Sisters. The story of Professor Gargoyle was very enjoyable, but at times the writing felt slightly stilted or overly formal. It was nice to see a horror kind of story play out at something else than an old mansion. The school is all new and shiny, yet it still feels spooky. I loved that Professor Gargoyle combines both a feel of gothic horror and contemporary technologies. And on op of that all there is something wrong with the chemistry teacher… At first it seems just like any school, but within the first day strange things start happening rats appear in lockers, thingy gets lost in the high-tech library and winds up in an ancient attic. Professor Gargoyle is the story of Robert Arthur, who starts at a new school that just recently has been built. It looks and it feels amazing – such high quality for a MG book. Quirk publishes extremely aesthetically pleasing books, and PG is no exception. ![]() ![]() ![]() Goodreads | Author | Publisher | Amazon Paperback & Kindle | Book Depository Published September 25th 2012 by Quirk Books Series: Tales from Lovecraft Middle School #1 ![]()
