Review
"'Charlie Bone is dark, funny, crackling with magic. It's a long time since I've been so absorbed in a story' Artemis Cooper; 'A fast-moving, dialogue-driven romp with plenty of cliff-hangers' Bookseller 'The story is lively, accomplished and dramatic and the writing has an engaging directness and warmth' Helen Dunmore, Daily Telegraph; 'Addicts of Jenny Nimmo, of whom I'm proud to be numbered, will rush to buy The Time Twister... Classic Nimmo territory' Independent 'There's an excitement and originality about her writing in both the words she uses and the stories she tells that make her books a constant delight' Julia Eccleshare, Books for Keeps; 'Another irresistible volume of Jenny Nimmo's excellent and highly acclaimed series' Waterstones Quarterly "This book has been far the best I have read all year! The imaginary plot was full of adrenalin and excitement. All five books have been fantastic! You must read it!!!!!!!!!!" Melika, 11"
Product Description
This is the eighth and final thrilling magical adventure starring Charlie Bone! The race to find the box containing the secret regarding the Bloors' fortune has become deadly. The Bloors are gathering their evil forces - thieves, poisoners, kidnappers, swindlers and even murderers from Piminy Street and an expert magical swordsman from the seventeenth century. And Lord Grimwald, Dagbert's father, is enlisted to drown Charlie's father and mother on their second honeymoon using his magical Sea Globe. Charlie is determined to stop them from finding the box and destroying it. But with the Pets' Cafe closed down, Billy trapped in Badlock and one of his friends tricked into helping the Bloors, it looks like his only hope might be the mysterious Red Knight. But who is the Red Knight? And can he help Charlie defeat the Bloors once and for all? All the magical threads come together in this amazing finale to a hugely compelling series.

This book is the last in the Charlie Bone series. I bought these books for my nine year old son - he enjoyed them so much that he persuaded me to read them too. We have been waiting patiently for this one to be published. Whilst the outcome is not a surprise,the route to get there is and I genuinely did not guess the identity of the Red Knight. The book is beautifully written and fans of the series will not be disappointed. I was sad to reach the last page - but next year I think that I will read them all again!

The final volume in the Charlie Bone series does not dissappoint.
This has been an excellent series by Jenny Nimmo. It finally reaches a dramtic climax with a battle on the heath between the forces of good and evil. Revelations are uncovered and storylines are completed in a race to the last page. Indeed, the only reson I did not give five stars is that the pacing is perhaps a little too quick in this volume. It's a minor quibble though as the characters we have come to love all have their part to play and in the end fill our hearts with joy.
I hope that there will be more about Charlie and his friends from Jenny Nimmo as there are still a few questions I would ask. For example; what about Mathilda?
One question for the publishers, what about a hard back edition of the first book in the series?

I ordered this book on wednesday, and got it on satrurday (great delivery from amazon!) and read in about a day. It is very well written and a great ending to the first 7 books (I have read them all!) Rumour has it that Jenny Nimmo (amazing author) is writing a 'children of the red king trilogy' or something so if you like this look out for the rest of the books!

Great book, but why have Edgmont done this??
