Update 2020:
Not quite as good as the first one. It takes a while to get going, but came together in a pleasing way.
With the slates of the StregaSchloss roof crumbling round their ears, the Strega-Borgia family, complete with staff and dungeon-dwelling beasts, is forced to decamp to a local hotel for Christmas. Bored of being cooped up with only his laptop for entertainment, Titus tries his own experiment in cyber-cloning, only to end up besieged by 500 miniature versions of himself and sister Pandora. The beasts too are fed up at the hotel. Determined to return to StregaSchloss, Ffup the dragon, Sab the gryphon and friends set off cross-country only occasionally distracted by the call of the wild...A superbly labyrinthine plot weaves together clones, kids, beasts and dodgy roofers with great humour and a touch of magic.
