Rayleigh Mann in the Company of Monsters was a fairly entertaining read. Pitched at older children or young adults, it's a fairly easy read set in a magical realm - although not too far away from London.

For those who love the Harry Potter books, I'm guessing you will also enjoy this tale. And as with the Harry Potter books, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the start of a new series.

With lots of magical creatures to discover, our plucky 12 year old Rayleigh is set on an adventure - both personally and physically.

Given that it's aimed at a younger audience, I still enjoyed this tale and it's absolutely perfect for October / Halloween reading.

The cover has a wonderful illustration and there are other smaller illustrations at the beginning of each chapter.

Overall, this is a fairly quick and engaging read. I think this could be quite popular!
