Crime fighters by day, freak show by night.When the mudlark's (poor people) children go missing can Sheba the Wolf girl, Monkeyboy and Sister moon the cat-eyed ninja team up to find them?
After a week of sneaking around, fighting physco maniacs and almost getting killed (a lot) will they find and save the kids? You'll have to find out for yourselves by reading the book.
Freaks by Kieran Larwood takes place in Victorian London. Victorian London was stinky, very stinky. Most people didn't have toilets and all the sewage went into the Thames. Also it was dangerous too, children ran through taking stuff out of your pockets and people would slit your throat if you made them mad. London features high class places such as The Great Exhibition as well as rundown penny gaff theaters where many people went to get a cheap show and maybe some food.
Keiran Larwood, author of Freaks, was born in Kenya, Africa but only lived there a short while before moving to the UK. He ended up on The Island of Wight where he now works as a elementary teacher. His dream is to be a full time author. He now lives on The Isle of Wright with his family.
Freaks, by Keiran Larwood, was first published March 1st, 2013 by Scholastic Inc. Freaks was a good book full of adventure and action. I would recommend this book to people who like fantasy, fiction and suspense.
** It was first published April 15th, 2012 in the UK**
