Critic Reviews

‘A fast evolving plot and a great mix of scariness and humour’ Sunday Express

‘Fast and funny.’ The Times

‘A magical mystery that grabs you from the first word and doesn’t let go, not even when you’re finished, and leaves you gasping for more like a fish out of water. Terrifyingly good!’ First News

What a great finale

This book is my second favourite after 'The Last Stand of the Dead Men'. It's really captivating and the twists are so delicious, especially the last one ;)
Thanks again Derek

A Fun Ride

The narration of this book is amazing! Each character has a unique voice and helps add to the personality of each character. I had a bit of nostalgia while listening to this book because I read them as they were coming out and love the series. I highly recommend this audiobook series to anyone who loves magic, humour, action and crime. It has some Harry potter aspects but are highly different to harry potter itself. It does get quite dark at points but I think anyone who has read Harry Potter or any Rick Riordan books would love this series.
