Editorial Reviews

Review

" "Her strongest novel yet, her characters developed through carefully convoluted plotting." - Glasgow Herald "It's strange, kooky, funny and enthralling. If you haven't got into the Pure Dead series, it is highly recommended for children aged 9-11." - Birmingham Post "The deliciously outrageous plot mixes love, marriage, midges, acne and sulphur. Deep Trouble is as fast, witty and wildly inventive as the first three books." - The Scotsman [An] entertaining mix of adventure and comedy - Primary Times (Hampshire)" --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
