At the Strangeworlds Travel Agency, each suitcase transports you to a different world. All you have to do is step inside . . .
When 12-year-old Flick Hudson accidentally ends up in the Strangeworlds Travel Agency, she uncovers a fantastic secret: there are hundreds of other worlds just steps away from ours. All you have to do to visit them is jump into the right suitcase. Then Flick gets the invitation of a lifetime: join Strangeworlds’ magical travel society and explore other worlds.
But, unknown to Flick, the world at the very centre of it all, a city called Five Lights, is in danger. Buildings and even streets are mysteriously disappearing. Once Flick realizes what’s happening she must race against time, travelling through unchartered worlds, seeking a way to fix Five Lights before it collapses into nothingness – and takes our world with it.
A magical adventure for 9+ readers that will take you to whole new worlds.

I like how Flick was a normal character and that the book was trying to say that magic is out there and this could happen to anyone. Flick was my favourite character as she didn't lie and I liked Nick the thief because she was so friendly and nice. I would recommend this book.

I thought that this book was really good, I rate it 5/5. I thought that it was such an interesting book that pulled me in straight away. It was fascinating to see the development of Flick and Jonathan’s relationship. I would definitely recommend!!

This was possibly the best book I've ever read in my entire life! If your reading this comment, then you absolutely have to read this book! There's a second one two called the strangeworld's travel agency the edge of the ocean and there's a third one coming out in April 2022.

I loved this story! The idea of climbing into a suitcase in one world and then climbing out in another! Highly recommend this book and getting lost in the multiverse.

It was an exciting adventure showing the building of a friendship and different, fun worlds. My favourite character was Flick as she was adventurous and polite, but she always stood her ground. I'd recommend it to someone who loves adventure and mystery stories.

This book was fantastic! I liked it so much that I finished it in a couple of days. My favourite character was Flick because she was willing to give up her life for the travel agency. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone that likes books about adventures and magic.

I thought this was a great read, and my favourite character was Fliss, who discovered the Strangeworlds Travel Agency by accident!
Dame Rose Rollerskate 10.04.2021
An amazing book but a slow start to action means I can only give it 3 stars. Good for people who like villains, adventure,magic and the odd suitcase!
Agent Mistral Quest 26.10.2020
It takes you on an adventure which you can only go on by going through suitcases.
King Aardvark Armchair 27.09.2020
A great read, which although slow to start took off and had me gripped. Awesome imaginative concept of a 'multiverse' where the main characters Flick and Jonathan travel to using different suitcases. Definitely a class read for Y4+ or for Y5+ independent reading. Thoroughly enjoyed!

It was a bit slow to get going but the story has some good plot points as you read on.
