Reviews
Tor Freeman's third full-colour comic adventure combines fast-moving fantasy, visual comedy and a gloriously strange underworld setting. 7+ year olds who enjoy anarchic illustrated stories can follow Shirley and George as their rescue mission takes them deeper into trouble.
How did a kid end up being the boss of the Underworld? It's a kind of weird story and comes from the eclectic, electric imagination of award-winning author and illustrator Tor Freeman who goes above, beyond and a long way below in the third hilarious book in a fast-paced, funny, full-colour and accessible graphic novel series. [...] Fizzing with charm, energy and the silliest comedy this side of the Under-Underworld, this is one Boss that youngsters will be happy to obey!
