Description :
Granny
Very good children's author. "Joe Warden isn't happy. He has rich, uncaring parents and he's virtually a prisoner in the huge family mansion, Thattlebee Hall. But his real problem is his Granny. Not only is she physically repulsive and unbelievably mean, but she seems to have some secret plan - and that plan involves him."
The Switch
A boy's casual wish leads him into a dark and mysterious world in this thrilling adventure from the bestselling author of the Alex Rider series. For Tad Spencer, only son of a fabulously wealthy businessman, every day is like Christmas. Until he makes the mistake of wishing he was someone else. The next morning he wakes up as Bob Snarby, trapped in a cruel and squalid funfair world inhabited by hopeless criminals, mysterious fortune tellers and – worst of all – the murderous Finn. But he's there for a reason, as Tad discovers when he begins to untangle a secret that will introduce him to the most unexpected enemy of all...
Return to Groosham Grange
Fantastic author of children fiction. "A year ago, David Elliot would have been happy to escape from his weird school and its ghoulish teachers. Now he's on course to win the unholy Grail, a cup of magical power presented to the star pupil. But someone else is trying to get their hands on the unholy grail, and use the power for evil. Unless David can stop them, Groosham Grange will be history"
The Devil and his Boy
London is dirty, distant and dangerous, but that's where orphan Tom Falconer is heading. Here he meets Moll Cutpurse, and it's not long before the two of them are chased across the city by the murderous Ratsey. But on the first night of a new play - The Devil and his Boy - Tom is in more danger than he can possibly imagine. The fate of the Queen and the entire country rests in Tom's hands.
Groosham Grange
Sent to Groosham Grange as a last resort by his parents, David Eliot quickly discovers that his new school is a very weird place indeed. New pupils are made to sign their names in blood; the French teacher disappears every full moon; the assistant headmaster keeps something very chilling in his room... What's the meaning of the black rings everyone wears? Where do the other pupils vanish to at night? Most important of all, how on earth can David get away – alive?
