Attack of the Fiend by Joseph Delaney

5.0

I really like this series. Tom, for all that he is only 13 years old, has a lot on his plate as the apprentice to the Spook. He's come a long way since being apprenticed per his mother's wishes, but still has far to go. There are still mysteries that he is discovering along with his growing abilities. He has to fight the prejudices and fears of townsfolk everywhere he goes. He wants to listen to his instincts but worries that they may lead him astray. Who can he trust?
He and the Spook and Tom's friend, Alice, have to fight the growing number of witches who are gathering to bring the Fiend up from below. It may be a losing battle.
I can definitely recommend this series to anyone who likes YA, fantasy, a good story.
