[Jamie Bowen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Melchester Rovers have turned things around and from relegation favourites, they’re now on the verge of the playoffs. But the stakes are extremely high, lose and they lose everything. Can Roy inspire his team?

Great series, that’s more than football.

[Barry Bridges · Rating 4 out of 5]

More well written football action and family problems with Roy Race.

[Jonny Brick · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great examination into pressure, success and hard work, setting up the next book very well.

[Sophie Crane · Rating 5 out of 5]

An Outstanding story. It's great having Roy Race back for a new generation.
