Got here because of the Wolf Man, just finished reading the book, and man, what a pleasant adventure that was :) I currently have 38 monsters as candidates for my team, and choosing only 9 levels' worth is going to be a nightmare. They're all so charming! My favourite type overall is probably the Undead, I really loved most of them, but I was mostly heartbroken by the level 6 bosses. They're too cool! I can't pick just one! Though if I had to, it would probably be the Flatwoods Monster... And then I'd round out the team with Batty and RPG Knight. Probably. I could do go back and forth on my choices all day, and I think that speaks to the care that went into making this book! Every monster is charming and has its own appeal, even the ones that aren't for me.
I audibly went "NOOOOOOOOOO" when I reached the end of the book and found out what happened in Apple Orchard. Also, the lesbians and trans people were great!
10/10 would visit Pommeland again if Apple Quest ever gets a sequel
