Critic reviews

September Book of the Month LoveReading4Kids: ‘This is a cracking new adventure in a series that has set the standard for comedy-horror.’

Scope for Imagination
‘This is upper middle grade comedy horror at its best.’

Praise for the Dread Wood series:

“Deliciously scary and hilarious comedy-horror, perfectly pitched for eight-plus.”
The Guardian

“Brilliantly creepy fun for young horror fans, with an unexpectedly moving ending.” The i, 30 of the best children’s books for Easter.

“Jennifer Killick’s talent for horror and humour is blended brilliantly here as the spiky dialogue, unstoppable pace and genuinely menacing atmosphere build to a tremendous climax”– Daily Mail

“A heart-stopping thrill ride of a book.”
M.G. Leonard, author of Adventures on Trains series

“Sharp, scary and a whole lot of fun!”
Christopher Edge, author of Escape Room

“This is BRILLIANT! Creepy, pacy, smart, witty and just pure Jennifer genius.”
Vashti Hardy, author of Brightstorm

“This is Killick’s best book yet; think ‘The Breakfast Club’ meets ‘Stranger Things’, making great use of her talent for comic dialogue and her astute eye for just the right kind of scary for this age group.”
Fiona Noble, Bookseller, Editor’s Choice

The reader of this book is incredible! The way he makes most sentences sound so tense and deep!(get it deep😏) yeah that was cringe💀💀) and the book itself is brilliant! Also I would like to recommend some book ideas for dread wood (even though I know the series is finished) Maybe the Lachets could genetically mutate themselves which would be quite cool or maybe see the story through somebody else like gus or even the latchets pov. But all in all amazing book would defo reccomend
