The final book in the trilogy from the prize-winning author of Trash and Dog, RibblestropForever! is sure the delight the most mischievous among us. The
children are back! - but an
air-crash and an
unsteerable raft quickly land them in deep waters. Rescued by a
mad librarian, they're soon off on a
dangerous quest across the wilds of
Ribblemoor, exploring haunted flare-paths. Can they uncover the
ancient mysteries of a
secret tribe? Can they survive the dangers of
Lightning Tor?
Inspector Cuthbertson is right behind them, determined to destroy the school for good: it's the
final conflict...
PRAISE FOR RIBBLESTROP: `Masterful knockabout humour....the book bulges with irreverent fun and incident.'
The Irish Times `Ribblestrop has the "crazy school" appeal of Hogwarts and the grim humour of Lemony Snicket, and looks like a winner.'
The Independent `Ribblestrop is disgracefully dangerous high-octane fun of the highest order: an outrageous delight'
