Space Band by Tom Fletcher is about the worst band on earth, the Earthlings. George, Bash and Neila try everything to win a competition at their school to win tickets for a concert of their favourite artist. But suddenly they are beamed up into space and have to compete in the Battle of the Bands to save their planet!

I am big fan of Tom Fletcher's books. They are such nice children's books and grown-ups can enjoy them too! However, I have to admit that I did not like this book as much as I liked his other books. They story did not suck me in. But I liked the characters. Even though we did not read a lot about George's parents, they are awesome! And the three kids have an awesome friendship.

I loved the references to Tom Fletcher's band McFly, his sons and other musicians. That was quite hilarious. What I loved the most is that McFly recorded all the songs in this book and you can listen to them while reading the book! This is just an incredible awesome idea.

Even though I did not enjoy this book as much as I enjoyed his other books, I still liked it. However, I can't wait to read the new Christmasaurus!
