Summary from A J's website
In this illustrated instalment, Delilah and the
Dustbusters are invited to Transylvania to cater for the Hallow Eve
Ball. All is not what it seems and Count Dracula has a very unusual
request for Delilah.
This is the second in a series of stories following Delilah and the
Dustbusters on journeys and adventures around the world. Delilah
Dusticle’s Transylvanian Adventure guarantees to have has more action
than you can shake a feather duster at!
Nayuleska's thoughts
Despite forgetting the finer details of book
1 (title in suggested read below) I remembered that Delilah's life was never
dull and full of weird & wonderful goings on. I didn't expect to be so
bowled over by being met with so many unexpected scenarios. Thanks general
concepts about dracula I had an image in my mind of what he would be like-never
did I suspect he would have fluffy duck slippers! That is only the start of the
unexpected in this story. Barely a page went by that didn't make me smile or go
wow with the constant plot twists which leave not quite a cliffhanger ending
but one that makes me wish book 3 was out right now!
Expect to be surprised by
what several people do and who they actually are-appearances are totally
deceiving. Except for the Grumpy Sponge who is frequently grumpy - no, wait a
moment, he does purr for someone other than Delilah. He isn't a cat! The
concepts used and looked at provide a thrilling read, only slightly decreased
by occasional grammar/punctuation errors - my copy might be an ARC.
Find out more on A. J. York's website.
