Kyle’s imaginary friend from childhood is back… with a vengeance.

Kyle hasn’t seen Mr Mumbles in years. And there’s a good reason for that: Mr Mumbles doesn’t exist. But now Kyle’s imaginary friend is back, and Kyle doesn’t have time to worry about why. Only one thing matters: staying alive… A major series from a fresh new talent, brought to you by the publisher that put horror on the map.

Review: What an incredible book. Full of mystery, suspense and kept me and the children in my classes on the edge of our seats. I have read this book to two different Primary school classes now, one as low as P5 and they utterly love it. Barry even came to our school in Edinburgh to talk to the children about writing and reading and inspired them so much. At one point in the story, without spoilers, a very descriptive scene of Mr Mumbles opening his mouth made a P7 girl faint! The next day however both her and her parents were keen to find out the conclusion of the book. Brilliant! Great stuff. I can’t get enough of Barry’s books, great guy, great books. Can’t wait to start reading it to my new class next term, they’ll love it!

Barry Hutchison hails from the Highlands of Scotland, where he spends time writing screenplays, comics and scary children’s books. He is in his early thirties – but on a good day could easily pass for mid-forties – and lives happily with his long-term partner and young son. He is tall – but not like the BFG or that – and likes seafood, comics and Elvis, though not necessarily in that order.
