The Very Dangerous Sisters of Indigo McCloud by John Hearne

Absurdly enjoyable dark adventure about a boy's mission to stop his evil sisters terrorising the town

‘An exciting and original debut’

-- Sara Keating * The Irish Times *

'Writing a dystopian world that is laugh-out-loud funny is no mean feat, but to create such an environment for young readers is nothing short of extraordinary.’

* Children's Books Ireland *

'Hilarity and heart center this quirky story about a young hero quietly taking a stand.'

* Kirkus Reviews *

'A raucous read with notably Roald Dahl–leaning social sensibilities.'

* Publishers Weekly *

'This Irish import will please children who want an over-the-top bully book jam-packed with adventure. This novel is wacky, awesome, and terrifying.'

  * School Library Journal *

'Descriptive and quirky, this is a jam-packed chapter book that fans of David Walliams’ books would enjoy.'

* LoveReading4Kids *

"A sure hit for readers who like nothing more than the sort of outrageous adventure that only a wild imagination can deliver. Perfect for the reader on the verge of becoming addicted to reading for life!"

* School Library Connection *

‘Missing Roald Dahl? Need a book where bad kids are just bad and they get their comeuppance? This is the book for you. John has written a fabulously funny, dark, clever novel.’

-- Read and Reviewed

'Quirky, humourously sinister and thoroughly entertaining.'

-- Mary Esther Judy * Fallen Star Stories *

'What a delightfully twisted book! The story is unpredictable and keeps the readers at the edge of their seats. It oddly reminds me of a Tim Burton movie, dark, but Indigo is rather lovable unlike the rest of his family.'

* NetGalley Reviewer *
