Students diving into this series will discover exciting, thought-provoking tales. Here readers will find accounts of ghosts and hauntings; mysteries not yet fully solved; and creatures that, even after having undergone intense scientific scrutiny, still haven’t been officially declared genuine. Each story opens with a brief introduction and cast of characters, all of whom are real except for those featured in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” Some titles feature a “More” follow-up page with additional facts about the unexplained incidents or creatures, i.e., hauntings and monsters, respectively. Others have reports of not-as-yet-fully explained phenomena and creatures, including the Loch Ness Monster, the Bermuda Triangle, and more. Each account is followed by a “Did You Know?” page with more information. The well-drawn, uncomplicated panels are easy to follow, enabling fast-paced reading; the graphics include crisp lines and sharp colors and evoke settings well. Back matter in all volumes include a glossary (no pronunciation guides), further resources, and an index. VERDICT This set will appeal to a broad audience, including striving readers, because of its mix of very high-interest topics. Graphic Monsters may have especially wide appeal due to its gory subject matter. Recommended where graphic titles are in demand in school and public libraries.
