Warring brothers Max and Liam find themselves trapped in a time-travel game. Can they survive the dangers and solve the riddles without killing each other
Gaming-obsessed Max and his infuriating younger brother, Liam, are forced to work together when a new game on Miss McBoobs mobile phone sucks them into a time-travelling vortex. The Glitched app transports the brothers to earlier versions of their home town where they find themselves in the Stone Age, in Roman times, in the Middle Ages and in the age of the dinosaurs. To return to their own time they must solve riddles while dodging woolly mammoths, jousting knights and all manner of bodily fluids, both human and animal!
Author and illustrator Emily Snapes sons were both reluctant readers, which made her want to write books they could not resist reading! Reading should be a pleasure and it was Emilys aim to write books that pull you in and hook you from the start. Hopefully, then you cant help being moved by the characters as they grow and develop. I love comedy in books, but funny books also have to have heart, believable characters, and a great plot that keeps you reading till the very end.
With a clever mix of realism and fantasy and packed with historically accurate settings, crazy scenarios and gross facts, Game On: Glitched is perfect for reluctant readers, particularly boys.
