When his grandfather, Abraham Portman, is killed in a curious circumstances, Jacob is determined to find out what had happened - something that lead him to the discovery of some very peculiar characters. Together, they defeat the enemy, only to find more coming their way.
On their desperate journey to safety, Jacob and his newfound friends encounter dangerous monsters, both literally and figuratively; tricksome characters who are not what they seem; and continuously save each other from the brink of death.

Read this in my 8th grade class and now I’m obsessed with the series. The book just keeps getting better with every chapter you read....
I'm really enjoying this book I cant wait to know what happens next and my favourite character is Enoch because I think his peculiarity is so cool ...
A gripping story that is almost impossible to put down. It seems to wind you up into the story like a Hollow's tongue into its mouth- the only way out...
