Media Reviews
I now love this book ... When I finished this book, I got the second book and started to read it straight away * WE SAT DOWN *
...there is definitely enough kinetic activity for the young reader, a happy balance between realism and genre action, allowing for things to escalate over the next five books ... crisp, energetic writing * THE BOOKBAG *
This is a really pacy, exciting story full of twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat. * PRIMARY TIMES *
