The time has come for Kevin's Gloaming. This is a test every almost nearly eleven-year-old must pass to show they have all the necessary skills to be a vampire. Kevin will have to show he can transform into a bat, mind-speak and melt into the darkness. Which would be fine, except he hasn't quite mastered the melt yet... If Kevin doesn't pass, he'll be cast out forever. Is there anyone who can help him
"Fearfully funny, and a book to get your teeth into! You'll be Kevin's biggest fang!" Danny Wallace
"Full of hilarious, highly illustrated mayhem" Guardian
"Loved it. Full of heart, laughs and adventure." Dermot O'Leary
Matt Brown is an author and broadcaster based in the UK. He has written eight books for children, including Mutant Zombies Cursed My School Trip which won the FCBG Children's Book Award in 2020. Before dyeing his hair grey for fashion reasons, Matt presented on some of the UK's most popular TV shows and he has been on the radio a lot, hosting shows and making documentaries. He is a passionate promoter of reading for pleasure in schools as well as an advocate of saving public libraries.
