Voted Book of the Year by a number of reviewers and having now read it I know why. This is something very different from most action and adventure stories. The characters are brilliantly drawn and the plot lines is innovative and full of intrigue and danger.
If your child is into Anthony Horowitz or Eoin Colfer then get them to take a running jump into this – they’ll not be disappointed.
