Review
‘A first-class children’s novelist.’ The Times Educational Supplement;
‘Horowitz has become a writer who converts boys to reading.’ The Times; ‘Love
the humour – a very funny, imaginative satire.’ Good Housekeeping
‘There’s something nasty going on at 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? This Lancashire
Children’s Book of the Year will have you gripped and grinning to the last
page.”
