The Fizziness Business ¦ Almost Goodbye, Guzzler

Two entertaining additions to the 'Jets' range. In The Fizziness Business two escaped convicts attempt to steal the Crown Jewels with the assistance of a dastardly crow and a couple of ingenious concoctions. Unfortunately, their plans fail to allow for their own spectacular stupidity.

Almost Goodbye, Guzzler is a variant on the theme of the perverse fulfilment of wishes granted by genies. Schoolkid Guzzler relishes becoming invisible, but when he achieves this state his clothes remain visible, causing an apparent plague of hallucinations in his neighbourhood.

In both books the ususl 'Jets' blend of extravagant humour, cartoon dialogue and bold illustration works its reliable magic.
