The Adventures of Tom McGuire: Morkann's Revenge

by Rayner Tapia

This is the second book in the magical Adventures of Tom McGuire series. Just as the first book details, good over evil always prevails, Morkann's Revenge, steers away from the theory of Aristotle, where heroes are born. Tom, now 11 years of age, learns from his encounters and experiences thus evolving into a hero by incidents, which occur through the book. His older brother, James, now 14 years embarks on a perilous journey discovering new horizons and beings for the first time. He is mesmerized with his new discoveries and gains a new understanding of responsibility. Morkann alias Mrs Morecraft, displays her wrath together with her army of Ghouls swaying to assist her, but will she succeed? Will the boys be able to outwit her? Morkann's Revenge, details how two brothers reveal their characters to one another and demonstrate their sibling rivalry as well as introducing a tender innocent love and bond between them. Morkann's Revenge is captivating in language and each page is an image waiting to explode.

If you want something fresh with a science fiction edge, new characters and plenty of relatable themes, this is your series!

My children have all read the books too and the artwork they have produced as a result is amazing. It has really got the imaginative juices flowing with the imagery to digest.

I have heard this is being made into a movie too?? Move over Potter!

I highly recommend!

I read this book with anticipitation. However, I could not put it down.The book was fantastic, punchy, dramatic and very imaginative. I really sunk into the story and felt a kin to the characters. This author is very vivid and everything came to life. I loved it cant wait for the next book to be out The Dream Catcher.
