Joe and Harry are back in their second adventure. Things have changed over recent weeks and good luck seems to be everywhere due to the Imp King having lost his power and the Sprite Queen being in control. With the sprites ruling the land, misfortune may disappear unless the gang can help the Imp King regain control.
I read the Ministry of Mischief last September and loved getting to know the array of wonderful characters (you can read my review here) so I was delighted when The Takeover arrived last week and I was able to catch-up with them all (as well as meet a few new ones).
It's been two weeks since the crew arrived back from their last adventure and, with the imps living in the humanrealm unseen, things are interesting from the start. When things start going right for a change and good luck appears to be following them it seems unusual, and then with the arrival of Chirry the sprite, the gang begin to realise what's going on. What ensues is a delightful adventure that is fast-paced and full of events that will make readers chuckle. It's a book that will entertain and warm hearts at the same time. With positive messages woven in, this is a book that would be a great read aloud, either at home as a family or in school.
Publishing 25th September, Ministry Of Mischief The Takeover is a great book to put a smile on your face as the weather begins to turn autumny. I know that it will go down well in school when it hits my shelves on Monday.
