Luke’s dad has bought a lot of gadgets recently, and not one of them works as it’s supposed to. Maybe it’s because a machine-from-the-future is stalking Bromley, playing havoc with all the tech and trying to stop Star Lad going on a date. Could this be the Rise of the Machines? Luke knows what he must do - he just needs his fellow SCARF members to help, or it will be the end of everything....

Luckily Casper has Lamp to him company - his less-than-bright best mate who is also a strangely ingenious inventor. Lamp’s latest invention is a time-travelling toaster - or so he says.

Story
From the author of The Parent Agency comes a thrilling, funny and touching new adventure. Fred and Ellie are twins. But not identical (because that's impossible for a boy and a girl). They do like all the same things, though. Especially video games. Which they are very good at. They aren't that good, however, at much else - like, for example, football, or dealing with the school bullies. Then they meet the Mystery Man, who sends them a video game controller which doesn't look like any other controller they've ever seen.

Summary
A brilliantly funny story from a meteoric new voice in children's fiction. Luke is a comic-mad 11-year-old who shares a tree house with his geeky older brother, Zack. Luke's only mistake is to go for a wee right at the wrong time.
While he's gone, an alien gives his undeserving, never-read-a-comic-in-his-life brother superpowers and then tells him to save the universe. Luke is massively annoyed about this, but when Zack is kidnapped by his archnemesis, Luke and his friends have only five days to find him and save the world....
Winner of the Waterstones Children's Book Prize 2016. Hilariously narrated by Joe Thomas, star of The Inbetweeners and Fresh Meat.

Great fun
Yes yes I know this is a children's book, but sometimes it's good to go for something a little more innocent.
This is a fun book for kids to listen to, and there's also some great humour that adults will enjoy. Plenty of nerdy references for both young and old.

Fabulous
A fabulous tale about superheroes, saving the world and and friendships. Very good book!
Includes fun modern twists and a fiendishly clever plot that unravels perfectly throughout the story.
I couldn't wait to find out what happens next and I thoroughly enjoyed it, despite not knowing much about superheroes.
The narration is superb and the voices are different for different characters. Well done to the author and narrator!
