Ely Plot (The Wickit Chronicles, #1)

by Joan Lennon

You'd think growing up in a medieval abbey, surrounded by nothing but monks and hundreds of miles of swamp, would be pretty boring. Pip thinks so too, until the day he meets Perfect, a small stone gargoyle with a life of her own.Before long, the two find themselves in the midst of an assassination attempt against the new king, escaping into the cold dark night, being chased across the fens by a man bent on killing them...

Boring? Not so much.

This is a wonderfully written middle grade novel that shares a view for those who never been to England a bit of a what is different from the every day.  We learn about monks, cathedrals and how to punt down a river while being chased.  Add in a magical gargoyle named perfect and you have a short sweet read sure to delight.  The adventure continues in Fen Gold (Wickit Chronicles #2)
