You can absolutely guarantee that any new Frank Cottrell Boyce adventure will keep you and the young readers you give it to, absolutely entranced until the last page.

He has performed his writing magic ever since his Carnegie medal winning Millions first appeared and real magic, the sort practised by magicians, is at the heart of this story. The protagonists are cousins Nathan and Middy who share an obsession with magicians.

Middy is all about practising her skills and Nathan is the born showman and together they are the Wonder Brothers (don’t ask!). Older cousin Brodie is supposed to be looking after them, but all he cares about is his giant rabbit, Queenie, who turns out to be the real star of the show. Together they are on the track of the Blackpool Tower, gone missing since superstar magician Perplexion’s last ever show there.

Alternatively narrated by the cousins and the world-weary Las Vegas Police captain trying to find out how and why they are alone in Las Vegas, this is a story that genuinely has you suspending disbelief amidst the laughter. Full of wonder and fascinating facts and stories about magic and brim full of brilliant characters that you are reluctant to leave, this is masterful storytelling. Steven Lenton weaves his own magic with the illustrations to complete this perfect treat.
