Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Perfect for fans of Raina Telgemeier and All's Faire in Middle School , this sequel to the Eisner Award-nominated The Cardboard Kingdom follows the kids as they solve the mystery of a new neighborhood monster.
A mystery is afoot in the Cardboard Kingdom.
Vijay, the Beast, renounces his title after being bullied by neighborhood teenagers. No one--not his big sister Shikha or his friends--can seem to draw him back out of his shell.
That very night is when it starts. At first, no one believes Nate, who breaks his leg trying to pursue what he saw from his bedroom window. But then there's another, and another. An unknown monster has been spotted roaming the Kingdom after dark. It's ghastly, it's quick, and it might even have giant tentacles. Or claws. Or wings. Okay, there might be some varied testimonies on what exactly this monster looks like.
Forget Halloween--the newly minted Monster Mashers will go to any lengths to protect the Kingdom and uncover this mystery. But how did the monster get here? What does it want? And mostly importantly, who is behind its creation?
The Cardboard Kingdom: Roar of the Beast was created, organized, and drawn by Chad Sell with writing from nine other authors: Jay Fuller, David DeMeo, Katie Schenkel, Molly Muldoon, Vid Alliger, Manuel Betancourt, Michael Cole, Cloud Jacobs, and Barbara Perez Marquez.
"It's nearly Halloween in The Cardboard Kingdom, and one thing is for sure: a mystery is afoot. Nate is positive he saw a monster in his backyard. It wasn't a shadow or a rustling tree. It wasn't his eyes playing a trick on him. It was a monster, plain and simple. But the trouble is, no one believes him. Even his stepbrother, Elijah, says he must have imagined it... Until it shows up over and over again in the kingdom. Always at night, always on the move. This monster is quick, and it's, well, super scary. Even Vijay the Beast is rattled by this menacing new creature. But what does the monster want? Why has it come to the kingdom? And what can the kids do about it? It will take the greatest heroes, scientists, and sleuths in the Cardboard Kingdom to crack the case!"--Book jacket
