About this product

Product Information

The first volume of the beloved Bad Machinery series, now at a new size and $10 introductory price! The Case of the Team Spirit introduces readers to Jack, Linton, Sonny, Shauna, Charlotte, and Mildred: six kids navigating the treacherous waters of school and adolescence while also exploring the strange mysteries that abound in their peculiar English town of Tackleford. Jack, Linton, and Sonny look for cures to their football club's unexplainable woes, while Shauna, Charlotte, and Mildred try to find a way for compassion and justice to triumph in the face of die-hard sports fanaticism. But all of them should probably be more concerned with keeping on the good side of their history teacher, Mr. Bough. That is, if he has a good side...

'This small-press charmer, based on an ongoingwebcomic, is a stylish jumble of pop-culture references, sly humor, eye-catchingcharacters, mystery-and, oddly enough, aliens.' - Kirkus, PUBLISHERS WEEKLY (STARRED) - Allison is a triplethreat: he plots deftly, draws confidently, and writes dead-on adolescentdialogue. Set in a grammar school in a British working-class community, thisfirst book in his Bad Machinery series--originally published as a webcomic--hasthree earnest boys wing against three sharp-tongued girls to solve mysteries.The framing story concerns a Russian owner of a U.K. football (soccer) teamtrying to bully an elderly homeowner to sell her house; as the title hints,supernatural elements surface, too. There's plenty of cynical commentary aboutBritish consumer culture, and the students' sardonic banter provides a constantobbligato. About her mother's boyfriend's Velvet Underground albums, Shaunayawns, "It's nice that you gave some money to people just playing music for thefirst time." Allison's adults are sympathetically drawn, too--even thearchvillain has a human side. A wry glossary "defines" British terms ("Nuffink:The way you say 'nothing' if you were dragged up rather than brought up"), butcan't begin to illuminate the arcane mysteries of the Britishfootball-industrial complex; readers are on their own there. Dark, fast-paced,and riotously funny entertainment. Ages 10-up. (Mar.)

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
