A vampire and a ghost being friends is unheard of. It makes  no sense. The two factions have despised one another for all eternity.  But . . . Leo the vampire and Minna the ghost have battled together side-by-side, they’re sisters-in-arms, they’re best friends, and they’ll have to work together to vanquish a new, deadly threat.

Summoned to the Ghostly Realm for the murder of the Orphanmaster, Leo must complete three tasks to prove herself worthy of her unlife, each more treacherous than the last. Can Leo convince the Ghostly Realm of her innocence  and earn her freedom,  or will she be trapped there forever?
 

A monstrously funny and devilishly dark new adventure in Alex Foulkes’s Rules for Vampires series, illustrated throughout by the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, Ghosts Bite Back  is perfect for  fans of Lemony Snicket and Skulduggery Pleasant to sink their claws into.

There are highs and lows to being a vampire. On one claw, you get cool powers like beastly strength and hypnotism and the ability to GRIMWALK.   On the other claw, however, vampires are bound by the Vampiric Laws: rules to protect the balance between the worlds of the Living and the Undead.   And unfortunately, 11-year-old Leo has just forgotten rule number one . . .  The Rules for Vampires don’t tell you what to do when you make a ghostly enemy, or accidentally restart an ancient war.   But Leo and her very unusual family are more than up to the job.

A monstrously funny and devilishly dark new adventure from debut talent Alex Foulkes, illustrated throughout by the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, Rules for Vampires is the series that fans of Lemony Snickett and Skulduggery Pleasant will devour for breakfast.

*A spooky sequel to  Rules for Vampires  will BITE BACK soon – coming this Autumn*
