Charles, a young aspiring journalist, does not want to move to Echo City or live in the dilapidated former hotel his father is renovating, especially when he discovers that the city teems with monsters. Fortunately, he meets a monster mediator, Margo Maloo. This strong graphic novel has humorous creeps, a clever plot, engaging dialogue, appealing and diverse characters, and fabulous city scenery.
