Mister Monday by Garth Nix

 But a mysterious, key-shaped object appears and saves his life. The key is given to Arthur by Mister Monday, a strange man who Arthur thinks does not belong on Earth. After several more unusual occurrences, Arthur suddenly realises the true meaning of the strange key. He is the only one who can save planet Earth from the menacing creatures of another strange world, known as The House, by overpowering each of the seven Trustees of The House

 Mister Monday is an adventure-fantasy book written by Garth Nix. It is the start of the seven book series, “The Keys to the Kingdom”. Its fascinating plot, unique characters and sudden climaxes make you never want to put the book down.  

Recommended for students aged 10 and over.
