by Diana Wynne Jones (Author)
Fact: A Goon is a being who melts into the foreground and sticks there...
When the Goon turns up demanding Archer's two thousand , life turns upside-down. As Howard desperately tries to get to the bottom of this peculiar demand, he discovers that the town is run by seven crazy wizards (not all of whom live in the present!) and someone is trying to take over the world!
Exciting, bizarre and truly hilarious!

...Her hallmarks include laugh-aloud humour, plenty of magic and imaginative array of alternate worlds. Yet, at the same time, a great seriousness is present in all of her novels, a sense of urgency that links Jones's most outrageous plots to her readers' hopes and fears...
