About this deal

I can always rely on Cowell's characters to do the impossible, all the while reminding us that we can do the impossible ourselves if we only try. That's the cue for a thrilling adventure for five young children from the same family, though two of them have a mother and a missing father, another two have a father and no mother, and baby Annipeck shares one parent with all of them, as they are variously assisted and chased across different worlds by a robot assassin, a Grimm bounty hunter, a substitute geography teacher who might be a pirate, various robot assistants and a great and terrible beast! I love how the beautiful line drawn illustrations that covered the pages of her Wizards of Once series have continued in her new book as I really feel they give another dimension to the story. Cressida Cowell really is the queen of world building, and with this marvellous book kicking off her newest series, she has done it again! K2 O’Hero is a seemingly ordinary boy—after all, he and his twin sister, Izzabird, have been sworn to keep their family's Magical history a secret.

Which Way to Anywhere is an amazing book, and I’m so excited to check out more titles from the author in the future.

Nothing special, they have your typical shy and quite-soon to be powerful boy with a optimistic and brave sister. There were Cyril and Horizabel and THE EXCORIATOR and Vorcxix, two aunts and two speaking robots, there was family history, a possibly planet destroying government, auras, a tree cure, pirates and bounty hunters and it felt like too much for one book. Xar shared Hiccup’s talent of talking himself out of trouble but used it as defense mechanism to hide his insecurities.

It is very bad for bedtimes, if you read it at bedtime like I did; you don't notice it getting later and later and you may be very tired the next morning! But when the twins are whisked off to Jungledrop, a magical Unmapped Kingdom in charge of conjuring our world's weather, things get wildly out of hand. The novel deals with themes of adjusting to a new blended family and also touches upon ecological and environmental issues.

They are fairly ordinary children (although K2 and Izzabird have some odd magical relatives) living normal lives on Earth in the present day.

After some pages, I could enjoy the K2's adventure story and absolutely will looking forward for next book. K2 and his sister, Izzabird are the descendants of the magical O'Hero family, who have been joined in their rather unique and strange home by Theo and Mabel Smith. The warring stepsiblings need to put their differences aside and embark on a journey to new lands to rescue their sister and father before it is too late! I had some trouble deciphering a few of the words that accompanied the illustrations during the early chapters but didn’t have any problems with this once I got used to the handwriting. Hachette Book Group is a leading book publisher based in New York and a division of Hachette Livre, the third-largest publisher in the world.Which Way to Anywhere will be the first book in a new series for 8-14 year olds who love lots of action, fantastical adventures, exploring new worlds, incredible inventions, living maps, and giant robot assassins! There is magic; the O’Heros have magical powers, as do some other characters, but there are also robots and explanations of wormholes and other dimensions, and some characters are a mixture of both. When their baby sister Annipeck is kidnapped, the warring stepsiblings will have to use K2's gift to find a crossing point into one of those worlds and embark on a daring rescue mission.
