Review
a very funny vampiric tale, where our beloved raven guide must yet again save the day. (THE BOOK BAG )
Just when I thought the Raven Mysteries series couldn't get any better, along came Vampires and Volts. I think it's the best since book 1, Flood and Fang, which I absolutely loved. I guessed I'd probably like this one thanks to vampires being involved, but I didn't expect it to be so funny. Marcus Sedgwick makes me laugh with the smallest flippant comment, which I think is a great writing talent to have! (WONDROUS READS BLOG ) --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

So, in Vampires and Volts, it's Halloween and nothing at Castle Otherhand is running smoothly. Minty takes an embarrassing tumble at the Halloween Ball the Otherhand's find themselves hosting (they get the gig through very unfortunate circumstances, hehe!), Cudweed seems to be more undead than alive and poor old Edgar the raven is left to once again sort everything out. There's also a visitor to the Castle that brings some drama of his own... eek!
I've been waiting for Vampires and Volts for ages, as Sedgwick writes vampires so well (check out My Swordhand is Singing if you haven't already!) and they're my favourite supernatural creatures. I knew that when Lord Valevine and Co. met up with some actual real monsters, they'd wreak havoc and make things ten times worse. Even I couldn't have predicted Cudweed's hilarious problem, though I should have guessed he'd draw the short straw!
If there was any way to make Orion publish book 5, Magic and Mayhem, tomorrow, I'd be at their offices banging on their door. Mr. Sedgwick tells me it features lots of non-evil bunnies, which I can't wait to see. I predict it will be hilarious, and I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that Edgar doesn't fancy a tasty fluffy treat... Wish me luck with the wait until publication in April 2011! (Sob!)

Marcus Sedgewick has done it again! My daughter was engrossed with this book from the word go again! She adores these books and I recommend them to any parent, especially those who have a child in that awkward stage that needs a little more imagination and fun in their reading style, but it bored by their school books... wonderfully written, funny and full of imagination to amuse the young (and old)!
