What a wonderful read. This story is a horror written mainly for children. It reminds me of a mix of Roald Dahl, Nightmare on Elm Street and The Good Life.
The best thing about this book is its characters. Molly is fierce and Mr Adams is a man built for adventure. The monster was fun and scary, but not too scary, and carried a strong level of threat throughout.
A rare foray into independent publishing, and I am very glad I did so.

This was so great! It was creepy, eerie, and full of heart. The writing style was really smooth and easy to read, and I completely enjoyed this. It was absolutely perfect for Halloween, and I recommend everybody pick this up.

A strange tale of the world between awake and asleep. A world where the monsters true forms reside. Where they can hide from being found. It is a place which you can be dragged into and find the dead you miss living alongside these monsters.
This is a story of a girl on the hunt for her mother after being dragged into this world. I found it a compelling and fast paced story that keeps you interested. There are times where you feel like you are being talked down to or having things over explained however they are not constant or overly spoil the writing. I loved it and was unable to put the book down. I can't wait to read more about the tales of between.

Love the uniqueness of the story. It also has a simple way with words, yet still charms the reader throughout the whole book

This grabbed me from the first page. A whimsical horror novella that reminded me of Gaiman's children's stories and the new series Stranger Things. Stott does creepy well: I was definitely transported to the Between. (I may have left a light on while sleeping last night.) Can't wait to read more of his work!
