Jack thinks his life is hard enough when he's trying to fit in at the local comprehensive (when his parents want him to go to Eton) and his Great Granny Dazzle (who was also his best friends) dies. Things get a lot worse when he starts to get rather hairier than he should be and two strange children Ozzy'n'Ice, Ice'n'Ozzy turn up on his doorstep.

Its fun, it's got bite and above all it's very witty. A great novel and one that will appeal to a great number of readers as its pretty addictive. Read it in a day! I love book that do that to me. Definitely a novel to pass to friends and one that is a cracking opener to a great series.
PS: This book is so cute! I could help but go `Nahhh!' in the end. Tee-hee, it's now my guilty pleasure.

At the beginning of this book I really didn't understand what was going on because the chapters jump from two different people's thoughts amd what is happening around them. Towards the middle of the book it started getting better, and by the end I understood what happened at the start!
To be honest I was a little disappointed after I had finished it because of how it was written at the start, but overall, it was quite a good story.
