Publisher Description

One moment I was standing there, sword raised, knees trembling. The next, in a blur of fur and fury, the hellish creature was flying towards me, its huge front paws extended and savage claws aiming straight at my hammering heart...

Barnaby Grimes is a tick-tock lad - he'll deliver any message anywhere anytime. As fast as possible. Tick-tock - time is money! But strange things are afoot. One moonlit night, as Barnaby highstacks above the city, leaping from roof to roof, gutter to gable, pillar to pediment, a huge beast attacks. He barely escapes with his life. And now his friend Old Benjamin has disappeared.

"Barnaby Grimes is a highstacker which means he jumps from building to building, delivering messages around the city of London. One night, he comes across deep yellow eyes and very sharp teeth, a werewolf. Barnaby knows that Dr. Callwander's famous elixer has something to do with all the vicious attacks happening. Barnaby must figure it out, before he himself falls victim to a werewolf or worse, becomes one himself."

    " Largely predicatable and surprisingly bloody with a hero who I found annoyingly arrogant. The Victorian era setting was nice though. "

    " I guess I am not quite the right demographic for this one, but I found it really quite boring. Fortunately, a quick skim and the book was done. "

    " Undoubtedly my favorite Paul Stewart book. He's always kind of disappointed me in the past, y'know? Never really lived up this potential. This book marks a change, delving into a pseudo-Victorian style that's fun, fast-paced, and far better than anything he's done before. "

    " I usually love books set in England. This one left something to be desired. Even for the strong verbs and verbose action scenes, I couldn't get through the first CD. How do you make a scene like getting attacked by a werewolf boring? Just make sure we don't care at all about the main character. "

    " Good book, but I found it a bit predictable.I sometimes also found the main character a bit too fond of himself! Despite that, I read it to the end, and would check out the authors again. "

    " Quick easy read. Takes place in Victorian London. I had the mystery figured out very early. I would give it 2 1/2 stars because it was predictable and I didn't really connect with the main character. I am still going to read the next book. I liked The Edge Chronicles series a lot better. "
