The Spick and Span magical cleaning team investigate mysterious portals hidden in magic wands, in this imaginative and hilarious series perfect for fans of Nevermoor, Lockwood and Co, Howl's Moving Castle and Discworld.

'Funny, wise, fantasy with brilliant world building. A Pratchett for today, it's a perfect funny middle grade fantasy.' - Louie Stowell, best-selling author of Loki on The Spick and the Span

In the city of Helm, magicians and cleaners have always been rivals, but best friends Ward and Jago think they might not be so different after all. And when they get sucked into a portal hidden in a magic wand, they realise that the grown-ups have been keeping even more secrets from them, and their friend Magda's home world is in terrible danger.

As they investigate a devious mayor, a catastrophic spellnado, a school bully who's transformed into a mop and a dangerous choice involving a dragon and a unicorn, they start to uncover the truth about the real cost of magic ... But what will they have to sacrifice to reverse the damage?
