I know I dont fall in the intended age category but to be fair I'm not sure who does. This was too easily written to be anything but a children's book but the story was waaayyy too dark to be considered for kids.

I did suspect that I’d not enjoy this one, it really got redundant with the deaths in the end for just the sake of having deaths. The characters just felt flat and rushed. It was still fun tho..

My tier ranking of the author books so far : 

THE BOY IN THE DRESS, MIDNIGHT GANG , GRANDPA’S GREAT ESCAPE >
MR.STINK , AWFUL AUNTIE , BAD DAD, MEGAMONSTER >
RAT BURGER >
DEMON DENTIST, ICE MONSTER > 
GANGSTA GRANNY, BILLIONAIRE BOY, FING > 
SLIME, THE BEAST OF THE BUCKINGHAM PALACE

I have a feeling I’ll not like this , first off the future reverting to monarchy is already a bad start , but I think this is the best time to read this because we are having thunderstorms here atm and I haven’t seen sun in ages just like the little fellow in this book

Baš mi se dopala priča!
Pregršt ilustracija i raznih fontova čine avanturu zabavnijom.
Nije veća ocena jer je kraj zbrzan.
Dosta je mračna priča i ne bih je preporučila mlađoj deci. Možda 13+
Ali meni to nije smetalo.
