That enforcer, Frank Gallows, also refuses to give up when he realize he's zapped Garth into Ghostopolis, where a human won't survive long surrounded by ghosts and the other creatures who live there, especially the underground ruler hungry for the power Garth discovers he possesses when he finds the ghost of his grandfather, Cecil. Will Frank arrive in time to save Garth? Or will he be trapped in Ghostopolis forever?
Gothic illustrations and clever characters, including a bony horse named Skinny, make for a compelling adventure in the latest from this acclaimed author.
