"Great read, beautifully illustrated" - Joe Brumm, creator of Bluey
"Wonderfully funny, completely bonkers" -Jessica Dettmann, author of There's No Such Book.
The O.D.D. Squad are BACK! And this time, they're even more amazing (well, amazingly rubbish) than ever. Quack Attack, Detective Octopus and Invisidog are the most feared crime-fighters ever to roam Justice CIty. They're a bit of a strange gang, but by heck they get the job done. Most of the time. And only so long as the criminals they're facing are useless.
But unfortunately for them, their nemesis in this adventure really ISN'T useless. In fact, she's kind of an all-powerful sorceress, who goes by the name of Aunty Enchanty. And what's worse than an all-powerful sorceress? How about an all-powerful sorceress determined to wipe Justice City from the face of the Earth, using mega-monsters . . . One of which looks suspiciously familiar.
Can the gang unite to defeat Aunty Enchanty, or is this the end of the O.D.D. Squad?
This brilliant full-colour and illustrated-throughout series is perfect for reluctant readers aged 6+, and for fans of Bunny vs Monkey, Dog Man and The Investigators.

Die avonture van Kuifie (Frans: Les Aventures de Tintin et Milou) is een van die gewildste strokiesverhale wat in die twintigste eeu verskyn en is vandag steeds populêr. Die boeke word in ongeveer 60 tale vertaal. Die hoofkarakter van die verhale is die jong Belgiese verslaggewer Kuifie. Saam met sy hond, Spokie, beleef hy verskeie avonture.
In Die Blou Lotus word Kuifie na Sjanghai ontbied, maar die boodskapper word vergiftig voor Kuifie uitvind hoekom. Daar gekom, besef hy sy stryd teen die internasionale dwelmbende, met wie ons in Die farao se sigare kennis gemaak het, is nog lank nie verby nie. Gelukkig ontmoet hy die jong Chinees Tjang en saam trotseer hulle baie gevare. Groot is Kuifie se verbasing toe hy agterkom dat die baas van die dwelmbende iemand is wat hy ken …
