Meg and Belch have done some despicable deeds at times, and this, Meg-s first break-in, ends up with both of them being killed in a freak accident. Belch goes to Hell, MegĀ-she has to help Lowrie complete his tasks to complete his life, to decide her fate.
This book is a departure from Colfer-s usual science-fiction/fantasy genre, but is an indication of Colfer-s versatility as a writer, to produce a cast of very believable characters in a light-hearted romp around Ireland.
I cannot rate Colfer-s books highly enough, and I think the acid test for any book, is if it can be read by young and old. I have been reading this book to my daughter, and have thoroughly recommended this book to my grandmother. Both love this book, and that is why you should read it too.
