When Principal Skullwater bets on the Interghoulsâ Cricket Cup, the pressure is on the werewolf cricket team. Their team are rubbish, their opponents are pros, and if they lose the match theyâre expelled from school. Desperate, team captain Jason-Jock Werewolf trawls through his âmagicâ book, a publication so shonky I couldâve written it. It advises they dig up the skeleton of a professional cricketer, grind the bones, and imbibe the slop â and they actually do it. I never claimed they were gifted. Place your bets â¦

Nathanâs father, the Grim Reaper, doesnât trust him with a scythe. And for good reason, because this kidâs dangerous. He gives Nathan the next best thing â the ancestral book of curses, The 101 Damnations â but only after Nathan promises faithfully never to use it. Like thatâs going to happen â¦
Now thereâs an assassin coming to whack the principal, the deputy is a nanny-goat, the family heirloom is torn to shreds, and suddenly Mother Grim-Reaper wises up and demands The 101 Damnations be returned, now.

Itâs the annual handball competition at Horror High, and the heat is definitely on. Tony Bones-Jones is the molten-hot favourite, but an unidentified masked assailant has come roaring up through the ranks. The Bonester isnât worried. Heâs dispatched the best Horror High could throw at him. But this masked opponent is different â itâs as if he can anticipate Tonyâs every move. Is there some devilry at work here?
Two champions, two destinies ⦠Revenge will be sweet.
