What
a brilliant second book in the Charlie Smithers series this is! Full of
humour, charm, heroism, determination, courage, danger, cruelty,
sadness, historical detail and shenanigans galore, this book was a
thoroughly enjoyable read from start to finish. At times this story was
incredibly moving, and at others I found myself laughing out loud. I
loved reading about the 'special tea' made by the beautiful Madam Pirali
and the effects it had on the normally bombastic Lord Brampton!
Absolutely hilarious ! Charlie Smithers is such a lovable and believable
fellow. He is honourable and has a sense of fair play and common
decency and he will always speak his mind, even if it gets him into
trouble. The characters Mr Lovatt describes are all so easy to picture
and his descriptions are so detailed I feel I'm actually watching a
movie, it is so vivid in my mind. Thank you for this wonderfully written
tale. I'm now reading about the wonderful Charlie Smithers' adventures
in Oz......Please let there one day be a book Four Mr Lovatt.
