Edwin Spencer is the odd one out in his family. While his sisters and brother are high achievers (if decidedly uncool) he struggles at school and is happiest playing football with his mate Nat. Then the general boredom and misery of school is interrupted by a series of bizarre events Edwin starts to hear strange voices, and his science teacher of all people tells him that King Janus of Hysteria needs his help. As Edwin doubts his sanity, a whirling vortex appears in his bathroom! Before he knows it, he's been swept into a parallel world a world where they really need his help. If only Perpetua Allbright the school swot wasn't there with him... A brilliantly funny fantasy adventure from a talented new author.

J. D. Irwin (who also answers to Julie) started writing Edwin Spencer: Mission Improbable, the first book to feature Edwin and Perpetua, in 2001 when on maternity leave. She'd been writing grown-up fiction on and off for years, but soon discovered writing stories for children was much more fun and from then on didn't want to write anything else!
