Alcatraz Smedry is in trouble - he's just destroyed his foster mother's kitchen and a batty old man claiming to be his grandfather has just turned up. Oh and his is social worker's sent a gunman after him.

Somewhere between a lampoon of Harry Potter, a sarcastic commentary on American teen life and the traditional good vs evil (where evil wears tweed and reading glasses).
Unbeknownst to the rest of us, the world is actually run by evil librarians (hence the title) and Alcatraz and his grandfather's family are all that stand between us and total ignorance.

Older children, young adults, and older adults with a strong sense of the ridiculous.

Interspersing Alcatraz's narration is bursts of sarcasm and biting banter.

Infiltrate my nearest library.

Has written an enormous range of fantasy novels - comic fantasy, military fantasy, religious fantasy, steampunk and even mild horror.
