Industry Reviews

This is the brilliant sequel to Johnny and the Dead, featuring the same crazy bunch. They discover that they can travel back in time (on a bag lady's shopping trolley!) and try to go back to 1941 to warn people about a bomb that is about to drop. Extraordinary characters, their lively banter and the way they travel in time make this a highly entertaining and intelligent book. Johnny and the Bomb, won the Smarties Silver Award and was short-listed for the Carnegie Medal. (11 yrs +) (Kirkus UK)
