He read as he worked and he worked as he read. As soon as he finished the armour he put it all on and he set off. He passed his friend Harry\u2019s house.<\/p>\n<p>He called him over and asked him if he wanted to go with him.

There were no monsters of course because they were both as crazy as the crazy god.<\/p>\n<p>They thought the lampposts that lit up the city at night were the so called \u2018monsters\u2019.
