Review
'David Lee Stone is a wonderfully mad new talent to watch. He has a truly original comic voice and you won't forget his hysterically hopeless (rather than heroic) characters in a hurry!' (Wendy Cooling )

It's too good to describe, but I'll do my best!
David has a very imaginative mind to have created this book - and its even better than the first one (Ratastrophe Catastrophe) although it could really do with a dragon or two.
I hope all David's books are as good as this one.
Some of the great characters from the first book reappear in this one - Jimmy Quickstint, (ex) duke Modest and Pegrand. There are also a lot of new ones like Grab Dafisful and Obergarde the half vampire (or loftwing).
David's sense of humour comes through more than in the first book and the chapters are short but keep the pace of the book moving well.
I don't want to give the plot away - so you will have to read it yourself. I couldn't put it down once I started and read the whole thing in 2 days!
I'm already looking forward to the next one!
Format:Paperback
Great book requested by my son who thoroughly enjoyed the read! The book was in brand new condition. Many thanks
