This is an amazing book for young boys to enjoy.
It's about accepting differences in others, making friends and learning while playing.

Developing well
The second book in the series picks up months after the first ends. The character's struggle with his new life is evident and taking its toll. The relationship between Darren and Mr Crepsley is fractious and difficult but through the course of the book, I found myself beginning to care a lot more about the protagonist in this book, the author does a much better job of creating sympathy for them.
Narration is excellent again. Captures everything very well.
The story itself seems better paced and the writing come across as more mature and developed than the first book. An entertaining listen. If you were a bit on the fence after the first in the series, its worth persevering with.

Loved it!
Brilliantly read. Great story. My daughter and I enjoyed listening to it together. (Some slightly gruesome moments so best maybe for a 10 year plus?) So enjoyable! Ace voice ✅
