In this great new adventure, we are reintroduced to Wolfbane, the escaped leader of the evil Night Witches. We meet him creeping through woods on his way to meet his dreadful mother, Lucia Cheeseman. Together they plot revenge on Abby, Spike, Hilda and Sir Chadwick Street, the heroes in The Witch Trade. Between them they conspire to summon up a long-dead witch who knows the secret of Time Travel, enabling them to go back in time to change the course of events leading up to the downfall. In doing this they learn about all the wonderful Ministry of Time and the Ministry of Coincidence and the wizards who run the whole show. This is an all-action follow-up, with plenty of humour, vigorous plotting and terrific storytelling - it is also a perfect stand-alone novel for boosting the reading confidence of children aged 8+. There are some outstanding set-piece conflicts - with an evil, giant spider, Baal, Wolfbane's familiar, a stunning secret underground railway and terrible villains.
