Description
“Grumpfort is brilliant! Thoroughly charming." Louie Stowell, author of Loki
"Perfect for fans of How to Train Your Dragon and Grimwood." Jennifer Bell, author of Wonderscape
Meet Mo, the worst monster hunter ever, in this hilarious and highly illustrated adventure.
Mo never wanted to be a Warden - protecting the village of Bogfoss from the terrifying monsters in the woods is way too scary. But when he's beaten up by a goblin on his first patrol, he knows he has to prove himself.
So he sets out into the forbidden woods to catch himself a monster and make himself a hero. Instead he stumbles into GRUMPFORT, a secret monster fortress with a very big problem. The fearsome Grumpsnatcher is kidnapping the other monsters - and suddenly Mo's on a monster-hunt with a troll, a gnome and a fire-breathing snotwoggle to stop it!

“A hilarious adventure in a world where monsters have hearts, heroes have quirks and every page is bursting with fun.” Jenny Pearson, author of Shipwrecked
“Bursting with breath-taking illustrations, hilarious jokes, monsters with attitude, a grumpy sidekick and an outrageously fun plot - it's hard not to get sucked into the charm of Grumpfort and I'm not sure I ever want to leave. I loved it!” Ryan Hammond, author of Villains Academy
“This generation's How to Train Your Dragon with a sprinkling of Dahl-esque wordplay and humour. Wholly original and packed full of snort-inducing giggles and adventure and unexpected friendship. I devoured it (monstrously, of course) in one sitting.” Laura Noakes, author of Cosima Unfortunate Steals a Star
“Warm, funny and just the right amount of scary. Grumpfort had me gripped from the very first page.” Rachel Chivers Khoo, author of The Wishkeeper's Apprentice
