The Blurb On The Back:
Do you believe in magic?
With all six of them crowded into the secret room behind the rear bookcase in Vernon’s Magic Shop, they were practically bumping elbows in the dim light. None of them minded, though; they were practising what they loved most: magic.
This is Leila, escape artist extraordinaire. She shares all her secrets with her magical best friends, <>The Magical Misfits. But she can’t escape the mystery that’s heading her way …
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The second in Neil Patrick Harris’s MAGIC MISFITS SERIES focuses on Leila with Harris and co-writer Alec Azam doing a better job of integrating the backstory with the main mystery and mingling the genuine magic with the illusions while maintaining a chatty narrative style. Kids should enjoy the magic trick suggestions and code games and Lissy Marlin and Kyle Hilton’s illustrations have a fun anime quality to them that adds to the story.
THE MAGIC MISFITS: THE SECOND STORY was released in the United Kingdom on 4th October 2018. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the review copy of this book.
