More Misadventures with Merdyn the Wild!

Merdyn the Wizard is back, which is great news for everyone who enjoyed his adventures in The Wizard in My Shed (and if you haven’t read them, you’re really missing out). In the first story, Merdyn found himself in the 21st century, where he met and made friends with 12-year-old Rose, who turned out to be a descendant (no space here to list the requisite number of greats before grandchild). In this story, Rose must time travel to the Dark Ages when her brother Kris is kidnapped on the orders of Vanheldon the Vandal, as a way to lure Merdyn into a deadly trap. Accompanied by her still talking guinea pig, Bubbles, all sorts of adventures await Rose, and the story is both action-packed and very funny. Farnaby fills the pages with more wonderful historical details while also making all of his characters living, breathing people. Original, vastly entertaining, full of humour and a fair bit of wisdom, these time-travelling adventures are solid gold.

This is the second book in the series after ‘The Wizard In My Shed’ and the reader re-joins Rose and Merdyn the wizard on a new quest.

Magical brother and sister Rose and Kris battle to get back to the present day from the dark ages without changing the course of history! A fantastic mix of magic, adventure and mayhem!

I really liked this book as it’s all about history and magic combined.
Rose and Kris are siblings and both have special magical blood that no one else in the family does. One day Rose and Kris have a huge argument about who is better at magic and Kris manages to knock down Rose’s vet animal shed with a spell. Luckily no animals were harmed! After the shed incident, their mum banned magic for six whole months. A few days later, Rose goes swimming with her mum and when they return home the house has been ransacked and Kris is missing....
