The Henry Game

Imagine meeting Henry VIII and finding he's madly in love with you!

One lazy summer afternoon Abigail persuades Lauren and Marina to experiment with a homemade ouija board. The girls don't seriously expect the séance to work and are shocked when the glass starts moving, but that's nothing to the shock they get when they realise they have summoned up the spirit of a long-dead randy royal - Henry VIII. The trouble really begins when Henry declares his love for the sultry Marina and starts behaving in a seriously sinister manner. Jealous and possessive, Henry sets about controlling the girls' lives and making a right royal nuisance of himself...

Friendship, first love and men behaving badly - this is a fantastically funny chick-lit read.

Reviews

Full of good jokes, very well illustrated in a cheerily informal style and seductively enjoyable to read

—— Carousel

Irresistibly funny . . . Lightly yet cleverly written and illustrated, with sparkling black and white cartoons

—— Northern Echo

Two scary but comical stories

—— Birmingham Evening Mail

Two hilarious school stories

—— Burnley Express

Atmospheric, perceptive and brilliant

—— Daily Echo

Brilliant...the quality of imagination at play here is something special

—— TES

Joseph Delaney's The Wardstone Chronicles are a series of books that have maintained the very highest standard for nearly a decade. The Spook's Nightmare is another excellent addition to the series. Highly recommended.
