About this audiobook
Stranger Things meets Sideways Stories from Wayside School in this quirky supernatural middle grade novel about a boy on an unlikely quest to uncover an enchanted book to defeat an unearthly nemesis—from New York Times bestselling author Alyson Noël.
When he first started seeing ghosts, Max mistakenly assumed everyone else could see them, too. Now, after years of being blamed for the pranks of mischievous spirits, Max is determined to do whatever it takes to make himself normal. But when he’s sent to spend the summer with his eccentric grandfather, Ramhart, being normal becomes impossible.
Here in Glimmerville, bakeries sell enchanted pies, the lake is infested with mermaids, the town’s beloved ghosts roam free, and Ramhart himself is celebrated as the world’s most famous monster hunter. At first, all Max wants is to survive the summer, but the more time he spends in Glimmerville, the more he starts to wonder if he’s finally found a place where he can truly be himself.
But when a supernatural attack steals Ramhart’s soul, Max—with the help of a few new friends—must go on a quest to find his grandfather’s renowned Field Guide, an enchanted book that contains all the knowledge Ramhart has gathered about defeating unearthly nemeses. And if they don’t find the book fast, Glimmerville will crumble into chaos, and Max will lose the only person who’s ever made him feel at home.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was amazing! The adventures, the plot twists, and the friendships. This book shows there is truly a place for everyone!
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5The first book in The Spiderwick Chronicles series is The Field Guide. It was written by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black and published in 2003 by Simon & Schuster.
Simon and Schuster didn't recognize this STOLEN title...you literally published an entire chronicle about the same thing. This author wrote a much better and much more interesting book. Definitely recommend listening or reading this book. Could of at least made her change her title
