About the Book

3rd Ramion collection. Fantasy adventures set in the magical land of Ramion and Kent village of Shoreham. Contains four stand-alone, fantastical stories. In The Seven Stones of Iliana when the boys are magicked to Iliana (where the people have been enslaved by the Princess of the Night) Benjamin becomes a cruel and haughty prince, but Snuggle (Dream Lord super hero and family cat) comes to the rescue, fights a great sea monster, with the help of the Logs frees the true Prince, and restoring the seven stones to their pinnacles defeats the powers of evil. In The Black Marchesa the Black Marchesa (early practitioner of Women's Lib, had six husbands, ate the lot) breaks free from the preserving tank beneath the ruined tower. When the boys learn from Snuggle that she is going to fill the larder by wrecking the train on which their father travels home from work, they cry, "We must save our Dad!" In Gary the Frog Prince when Gary (a motor mechanic) awakes and finds he has become a frog he croaks, "This is odd!" Then he sees the Frog Princess ("She's beautiful! She's lovely!") but after travelling with Snuggle and the boys to the Kingdom of the Frogs he quickly discovers that this is another trick of the witch Griselda to catch the boys for supper: she has no more use for him.In The Embodiment of Evil Griselda advertises in The Lady for a nanny to hunt for boys and girls (Boris the skull has to pretend to be the baby). All nannies are unsuited for the task save Narg (who tries to eat Griselda). After eating Narg the Nanny Griselda goes to bed feeling happy, but when she discovers she has eaten the Embodiment of Evil she is horrified: has she done good by eating Narg?

Review :
"...fast paced, fun and absorbing..." -- Peter Watson, Primary Times. PRAISE FOR THE SERIES: "The Ramion series are the beautifully illustrated adventures of Snuggle the cat whose job is to protect a family of brothers from the evil Witch Griselda. There is a magical air of excitement and a rapid pace of action in the words. The colourful gouache pictures that accompany each page allow children and their parents to let their imagination drift into the stories. Together they will explore worlds which involve cannibals, dwarfs, dragons and knights: all the things that make a real adventure..." -- Forparentsbyparents. "...a fast-paced ping-pong of dialogue and plenty of stomach-churning action. There is also a satisfyingly high 'yuck' quota..." -- Daily Telegraph. "Boys do love to read -- they just want stories with pace, adventure..." -- Rachel Carlye, Daily Telegraph. "...full of adventure and intrigue that will keep kids and parents excitedly turning the pages until the very end!" -- Yorkshire and Lincolnshire Today, October 2005.
