'Be prepared to squirm with squeamishness, hold your breath in suspense, and giggle along with the dialogue.'
(Hackwriters.com )'a well constructed, engaging and affecting read'

When Reuben’s grandmother is accused of witchcraft and hanged he knows he must get away before he becomes the next victim of suspicion.
Reuben leaves the safety of his village. On the road Reuben is picked up by the strange Doctor Flyte and his slow-witted assistant, Baggs. The pair seem to offer help and friendship, but in return, Reuben must take part in Flyte’s sinister medical show.
Is the smooth-mannered Flyte all he seems? What is the truth about Baggs’s history?
Reuben finds himself involved in a terrifying plot that in the end threatens his own life....

A scary, can't-put-it-down, read,
By Bozey (GB) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Curse of the Toads (Paperback)
This is a great book. It begins quite slowly, but then it gets really exciting and you don't want to put it down. It's set in the 17th century and horrible things were happening. Reuben has a hard time trying to stand up to the evil Dr Flyte and his friend Baggs. He only has the memory of his grandmother and the dog, Shadow, to keep him company. A fantastic read.
