4-6Awfully Beastly Business series.
Illustrated by
Jonny Duddle.
Ulf the werewolf and his beast friends journey to the jungle to complete one of the late Professor Farraway's quests: searching for a vampire. But Baron Marackai has no intention of letting them succeed--or letting the vampire survive. As usual, the series balances dark situations with absurdity. Angular pen-and-ink illustrations play up the story's humor.
