Author(s): Denis Knight, Cristy Burne

Middle Fiction | Local Author/Illustrator | Cristy Burne

Gorgomoth the Unclean is on the loose again and he's out to ruin everything. When Gorgomoth steals the ruby ring and turns Grandpa into a frog, (how very dare he!) it's up to Wednesday and Alfie - with help from Bruce and their new friend Adaline - to track down Gorgomoth and stop him bringing on the Third Age of Never Ending Darkness. Wormholes, giant pinball machines, an evil lair, some misbehaving magic and missing eyebrows (Wednesday doesn't want to talk about it) all feature in this hilarious adventure to save the nine realms. Book 2 in the brilliant Wednesday Weeks series, which asks the question: In a world of magic, can science save the day?

She has performed in a science circus, worked as a garbage analyst, and was a reporter at CERN when they turned on the Large Hadron Collider, but her favourite job is working to embrace the intersection between science, technology and creativity. Her books include To The Lighthouse and Off The Track, and a non-fiction book, Zeroes and Ones, which was a 2019 CBCA Notable Book. In 2020, she told the story of the inventor of spray-on skin in Aussie STEM Stars: Fiona Wood. Cristy is a popular presenter across Australia and overseas. Denis Knight (Author) Science fiction and fantasy author Denis Knight is a computer programmer who grew up geeking out about the works of J.R.R. Tolkien, Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams. He has also worked as a technical writer, a delivery boy, a tutor, and, for one glorious summer, a tour guide on Rottnest Island. His favourite foods are lasagna and donuts, and his favourite Arnie movie is Eraser. He knows how to ride a motorbike and use a chainsaw, although not both at the same time. He lives in Western Australia with his wife, his two children, and his extensive collection of The X-Files DVDs. He has never been stalked by a laundry kraken, eaten by space wasps or abducted by aliens - as far as he knows.
