Discover the horrible fate of Jonathan York as he sets out on his journey through a spooky forest with an alarming party of travelmates! Jonathan York has led a boring life - a pointless degree from the community college, a lackluster job at the General Store, and never any desire for something more exciting. But when fate leaves him stranded in a sinister land, he finds himself seeking an adventure of his own. Along the way he encounters ghoulish thieves, ravenous swamp monsters, a dastardly ice cream conspiracy, and a necromancer bent on human sacrifice. In this beautifully illustrated, four-color novel, Jonathan York's life takes a decidedly spooky turn!

Truth be told, I wasn't expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did.
The synopsis caught my attention because I was looking for something creepy to read -mainly because I have read too much romance lately so I wanted to read anything that could give a good scare- and this graphic novel seemed perfect for my mood. However, this book didnt give me the creeps but instead, made have a very good time.
Even when this book is for children, I ought to say it's also enjoyable for more madure readers. The graphics are stuning, the plot captivating and the characters totally likeable. The style of the narrative was different from what I've read before, and I'm quite sure I'll be checking if this author has new books coming out.
-I recieved a copy from the publisher via Netgalley for this review, but this fact didn't influence the review-
That was a very interesting book! Weird and bizarre, but good!
A proper review is sure to come.
