Rules for Vampires
Autor Alex Foulkes Ilustrat de Sara Ogilvieen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 sep 2021 – vârsta de la 9 ani
'A wickedly fun debut, with a wonderfully strong girl hero' Cressida Cowell, Children's Laureate
There are highs and lows to being a vampire. On one claw, you get cool powers like beastly strength and hypnotism and the ability to GRIMWALK. On the other claw, however, vampires are bound by the Vampiric Laws: rules to protect the balance between the worlds of the Living and the Undead. And unfortunately, 11-year-old Leo has just forgotten rule number one . . . The Rules for Vampires don't tell you what to do when you make a ghostly enemy, or accidentally restart an ancient war. But Leo and her very unusual family are more than up to the job.
A monstrously funny and devilishly dark new adventure from debut talent Alex Foulkes, illustrated throughout by the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, Rules for Vampires is the series that fans of Lemony Snickett and Skulduggery Pleasant will devour for breakfast.
*A spooky sequel to Rules for Vampires will BITE BACK soon – coming this Autumn*
