It is 2120 and London is in ruins.

The young Prince Alfred has never known a life outside Buckingham Palace – but when strange goings-on breach its walls and stalk the corridors in the dead of night, he is thrust into a world of mystery, adventure and monsters.

And when his mother, the Queen, is dragged away to the Tower of London, Alfred must screw up his courage and battle to save her, himself...and the entire city.

In a future of myths and legends, join the best-selling David Walliams and venture forth into his most enthralling tale yet!

This is abysmal

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 8 February 2020

Verified Purchase

My 2 daughters, 8 and 10 read this during Christmas. Ten year old read it in one evening - says it was OK. Given the amount of large text and repetition it could easily have been squeezed into 30 pages. Very accessible for 7-8 year olds but not enough to interest or stretch readers. I had the mission of reading it with my 8 eight year old having lost the coin toss with my wife. I dreaded every minute of it as it is really atrocious in every possible way. At least DWs books are consistently terrible and consistency can be considered a desirable quality in some situations.

Massively exciting and full of adventure

This book is wonderful! David Walliams has really outdone himself with The Beast of Buckingham Palace; it is filled with mystery, adventure, heroes and villains, brilliant characters (poor Octobut!), gorgeous illustrations throughout and the setting is fantastic - aren't we all just a little bit intrigued by Buckingham Palace? There are some beautiful lessons about friendship, loyalty and bravery, with an enjoyable sprinkling of real history which I particularly loved. I had to include a picture of the stunning artwork under the dust jacket, absolutely gorgeous. I cannot imagine anybody not enjoying this story, it's suitable for all!

The book was amazing, a tale of friendship, bravery and loyalty. A truly heart-warming story, though it does not give us very high hopes for the future. Highly recommended for children of all ages
