Life has never been more complicated for 13-year-old Marcus. It's not easy trying to hide your secret identity as a half-vampire, avoid garlic, and work up the courage to ask out vampire-crazy Tallulah. Plus, Marcus's parents are still convinced his special power is going to arrive any day now, and Marcus is totally feeling the pressure. As if that wasn't bad enough, a seriously creepy Winter Fair has arrived in town - and a number of terrifying attacks have started happening. All Marcus wants is an easy life. But now it's up to him to save the day.

On my 13th birthday, my life changed for ever. That’s when I learned the shocking truth: I’m a half-vampire.Think that sounds cool? Think again! I’ve been attacked by an evil vampire bat, had huge cravings for my best friend’s blood, and nearly died from eating a pizza (half-vampires aren’t great with garlic). Writing my secret blog is the only thing that’s kept me from going completely crazy. As if life couldn’t get any more complicated, there have been some vicious attacks in the local woods. Vampire-mad Tallulah (definitely not my girlfriend) thinks a super-vampire is behind them....

When Simon moves in next door, he and Kelly become instant friends. But Kelly just can't help noticing that there's something very odd about her new friend.

Until they see the spaceship...

Jonas wäre gern so mutig wie Piraten-Bill aus seinem Lieblingsbuch. Zum Glück besitzt er einen magischen Umhang! Damit will Jonas sich um Mitternacht auf das Piratenschiff wünschen. Doch dann sind der Umhang und das Buch plötzlich verschwunden. Und auch von Jonas' nervigem Bruder Ben fehlt jede Spur.

Jonas ist genervt: Wie wird er nur seinen kleinen Bruder Ben los? Am besten, Ben verwandelt sich in eine fette Fliege. Dann findet Jonas einen Zauber-Umhang und sein Wunsch geht tatsächlich in Erfüllung! Blöd nur, dass er nicht weiß, wie man diesen Zauber wieder rückgängig macht. Doch das ist erst der Auftakt einer ganzen Reihe von Missgeschicken: Denn während Ben als Fliege durch die Gegend saust, passiert ein magischer Unfall nach dem anderen.
