Alex Vs Axel: The Impossible Quests
My Review
A killer combination of laughter and peril combine in this exciting page-turner. Nerdy school boy Alex and hero-in-training Axel are cosmic twins who end up swapping places. While Alex must take up the sword and find the courage to save Axel’s whole world, Axel must face bullies, maths tests and a chess tournament to save Alex’s home from repossession.
With friendship at its core, this book has real heart as both of our heroes have their lives turned upside down and are forced to venture out of their comfort zones to save the day. I love a book that can make me laugh, and if it can also make my eyes water it’s a real winner. A really fun, approachable epic.
