The third instalment in the brilliantly funny and fast-paced House at the Edge of Magic series.

""A fabulously funny book – I loved it! Prepare to be whisked away on an adventure bursting with magical surprises, dark secrets and strawberry tea…"" – Lucy Strange

Nine and her friends have cured the house’s hiccups and are off to the strange and utterly unpredictable Back of Beyond in search of Professor Dish – Spoon’s best friend and partner in all things alchemy.

When they find Dish trapped by the greedy witch Ophidia in the basement of a particularly marvellous shop, it soon becomes clear they’re going to need something more than Flabberghast’s dicey magic and Nine’s quick thinking to triumph this time. What they really need is a rather clever witch – one particularly good at curses…

I liked it because it was mysterious but I didn't really like it because it was hard to understand what was going on.

It was a fiction book with lovely illustrations but many words. It is also stuffed with magic and wizards and many other exciting things like a talking candle!
